MargaretMiller2360 — 2009-11-09 05:14:17Z

I found out that Mary J Novak DOB 1/27/49 is my birth mother. I was also informed she recently passed on 7/2/09. I was looking forward to meeting her and devestated to hear the news. I was adopted from Suffolk County NY area. I was born in Pt. Jefferson @ John T Mather Hospital. My dob is 3/9/66. I know her father's name was William Novak (Novackovich). I was given up for adoptionat three days old back in '66. I don't know my birth dad either. I am writing this and praying that someone knows Mary and her family. I would love for my two sons to meet a Novak family that I am a part of. I am 43 yrs old, I only found out I was a Novak this year. Any help with searching would be appreciated.

Re: Novak in Columbia County, New York

ArianoDiPuglia — 2009-05-27 16:01:44Z

Thanks Rachael! I was missing the generation between Max/Maggie (1840's)and George/Nellie (1890's). Joseph and Mary fill that gap.

The 1920 census shows the following children for George and Nellie Novak in Stuyvesant Falls: Barney (age 5), Mary (4 4/12), Joseph (2 11/12) and Stanley (7/12). Was Barney's real name George? Perhaps George Bernard Novak? The Bernard Novak you mention is buried right next to
Joseph Novak in the Hudson cemetery. Both were World War II veterans. By the way, I saw your grandfather Stanley's story and photo in the book "Battle of the Bulge".

Re: Novak in Columbia County, New York

rachelwallace1 — 2009-05-27 00:44:42Z

The only Bernard NOVAK that I have is the son of Victor NOVAK and Evangeline OLDRICH. This Bernard was born 1914 and died 1971. Victor was the brother of a George NOVAK. This is the George with the children May, Joseph, George jr. and Stanley. Victor and George's parents were Joseph NOVAK and Mary DRAVENSIEK. Joseph's parents were Max NOVAK (c. 1842 or 1837 - c. 1921) and Maggie (born c.1843.) There are so many Novak's in Stuyvesant it's hard to keep track of them all. Most seem to be buried in the St.Mary's Cemetary (Stuyvesant Falls) and St.John the Baptist (Valatie.) I'm slowly working on inputting the info into my tree here on ancestry but I have over 600 names in the tree so it's slow going. It is far from complete and I don't know if this will work but here is a link:

Re: Novak in Columbia County, New York

ArianoDiPuglia — 2009-05-26 14:24:43Z

That's a good tip, thanks. However, I have found his grave and the headstone also says Bernard Novak. Fairly compelling evidence against him being George Michael Novak Jr. don't you think?

NOVAK Family

2009-02-27 14:55:57Z

I have been looking through some of my grandfather's family tree collections (it's a bit of a mess) but I have a wedding thank-you card from a Mrs. James Kozel. I also have a wedding invitation from a Ann Virginia Kozel who was marrying a William James Klecka. Also on my father's aunt's obituary (Anna Divis) (in Bohemian) a Anne Kozel and a Joan Kozel are listed in the "survived by". My father tells me the Kozels were somehow related to his grandmother's family, the Novaks: Mary (Novak) Toberman (1888), Antoinette (Novak) Vavruska (1881) (changed to Vernald between 1908-1914) and Anna (Novak) Divis and possibly more Novak siblings.

I am looking for information on the Novak family (parents names, other siblings) and how the Kozels tie into the Novak family. Can you help? Novaks mentioned lived in Chicago.

Have you found his Naturlation and or Citizenship papers? If not, find him in the census, and take a good look at all of the columns. Getting these papers are full with a lot of wonderful information that lead you to the clues that you will want to know. These papers will not only tell you often times the ship, origin,country and village. Make a trip to the court house where grandma and grandpap lived, and look up records.

It is very possible your bernerd is actually a george jr.....sometimes it is easier to go by a middle name when there is more than one in a household. Sometimes children were also called by their baptismal names as well. One census is not enough evidence to judge I had 5 where one child was called lottie and only one where she was listed as Elizabeth. Elizabeth turned out to be her first name and charlotte her middle.

I am looking for information about Jane F. Franklin who married a Novak. Jane's parents were Marcus R. Franklin and Stella Manning. I think Jane would have been born around 1918 or 1919 in Allegheny Co., PA, quite possibly in the Pittsburg area, where her parents lived later on. Jane Novak is mention as surviving her father in his 1978 obituary (he died 2/28/1978).

Using the census dates, it looks like she was born around 1902. I'm no sure where. Do you think we are talking about the same Clara Novak?

My father's father was Frank Jr so perhaps we may be related to the same family.

Perhaps you can email me at snovak64@gmail.com and we can try to compare more notes.

I too know very little about my relatives other then my grandfather met my grandmother Martha Schweer (born in Minnisota and went by horse and buggy to Alberta Canada. Martha was sent to the states and there she met my grandfather Frank Jr. Frank Jr lived in Los Angeles, CA.

Not too sure when, I have very little information on my father's side of the family. All I know is that my grandfather on my father's side had family in the Czech Republic. Stepanka Novakova was one of the family members from there. Other than that, I am not too sure where to even find any of my possible relatives and don't have any idea when they came over.
