Rehak name in Banat region, Romania

soniavizante — 2008-03-19 04:27:57Z

There is a small community of Czech people in Banat region, Romania. My mother Cristina Rehak was born there in 1939. She died in Canada in 2006.
I'm trying to find my family origins from my mother's side.I'm interested also to find out how the Czechs living now in Romania got there in the first place and what made them immigrate in that part of Europe, the aproximate period when that happened and which Czech regions they came from.

Did Frank have two sons and a daughter? Anthony (Tony), Lewis (lewie), and Lana. The dates for your Frank and my grandfather sound like a match.

Looking for the history of the Rehaks'

christylee43 — 2006-03-20 18:51:38Z

I come from Washington state and am part of the Rehak clan. I don't know to much about the family tree and would like to know more.
My father is Anthony Franklin Rehak, brother Lewis Rehak and sister Lana Rehak, he grew up in the Kent-Seattle area of Washington. I can't remember their father's name, but he married a lady, my Grandmother, Deloris.
I do know that their Great-Grandfather was the Sheirff in the Cowlitz County area.
I am told that they are a portion: French, Bohemian, Indian and possible Scandinavian.
Please let me know if there is anyone out there with a connection to the Washington Rehaks.
I am also looking for my half sister Toni-jo; we share the same father Anthony (Tony).

Rehak in Hungary

2005-08-14 22:38:47Z

Hi All.

My relatives live in a town in Hungary, named Kistelek. They probably immigrated from Czechoslovakia or from the Austrian-Hungarian Monarchy before 1920. Does anyone has something about this in his/her family tree?
Thanks.

She lived with Michael in and around Blair Co., Pennsylvania. Had children: Mary Catherine, Lizzie, Annie and possibly more that I am unaware of.

Gretchen,
Thanks so much for taking the time to reply and also the
information shared. Am afraid I have very little on this family.
The children that I show for John and Teresa Petras Rehak
were: John - b. 1896, Jacob - b. 1901, Paul - b. 1904
and Rosa - b. ca. 1908. I have made several attempts when
in that area of PA to locate any descendants of this family,
and all have been unsuccessful.
Will keep in touch and maybe together we can be of help
to each other. Good luck with your Koelsch research.

My family resides in Texas. I live in Austin.
Most of the family live in the Beaumont and
Houston areas. I was raised in a small town 65 miles
from Houston,Newgulf. Dad, deceased, John Kenneth
was a welder at Texas Gulf Sulfur Company. His
3 other brothers also worked there and retired.
My grandfather Fred John Rehak and 3 brothers
and parents came to America from Moravia, and
received their travel papers from Berlin. They
went to New York, on to Galveston,Texas and settled
on farm land near Yoakum,Texas. My grandfather
worked on a ranch near Refugio,Texas, where
hall of famer Nolan Ryan was born.
He met my grandmother and moved to Bay City,Texas
where they lived and raised 4 boys.

The Rehak-Lepacek connection

2000-03-13 11:43:38Z

Janet: There needs to be a little modification to your family tree... Edward and Helen Lepacek were my uncle and aunt; they both died in 1998. Edward's mother (my grandmother)was Anna (nee Kastak) Lepacek who was married to Steven Lepacek. I believe one of the connections for the Rehak/Lepacek comes from the fact that my grandfather's (Steven) sister married a Rehak male, but I'm not sure of how the connection goes beyond that. There is a contingent of Rehaks in the area around Joliet, IL and Whiting/Hammond, IN. Write back to me personally for more info.
