We live three miles from Nelsonville. I am trying to find out when and where Steve Koslovsky arrived in the USA, and info on his first wife, the Mother of Veruna and Joseph. I got a copy of the cemeteries of Austin County. There is an Anna Koslovsky and an Unknown Koslovsky buried in the Industry Brethren Cemetery. No data is given for Anna and the Unknown marker is unreadable. Could Anna be Steve's first wife? My sister, Alice Cox, said she died of a heat stroke.

I'm researching the Miglas name (from Freeland PA) and I know there are Kislan's on my grandfather's side of the family. I believe his sister Mary Miglas married a Kislan. I have some old photos from my mother with these names on the back: "Paul Kislan Sr. Paul Jr. Ronnie & Patick". Another photo has "twins and Ronnie and Timothy". Do any of these names belong to your trees also?

you need to locate a name of a town in order to proceed with the research.

Not that your ancestral names are misspelled as such, they were written the way they sounded to an American ear.

Your Wydock could be WAJDAK, Bayorsky - BAJORSKI, Czerehowsky - CZERECHOWSKI in Polish spelling.

Some of your surnames can be found in Slovak Republic.

MaryCWydock — 2004-09-16 20:27:59Z

Surnames in my searches have changed a little, by doing more research and speaking to much old relatives, I have found that many names are misspelled. The Surnames listed below are from relatives who took the time to answer a few questions for me. I got much information from calling people I didn't know and I have made some great new connections to relatives that my husband didn't even know about. If I can help you in anyway please let me know. And I would love anything you could help me with.
Thanks. Mary Wydock

Darlene,
I am looking for Frank and Mary Koslosky. They originally lived in Pa. and went to Michigan. They changed their name to Kellar or Keller. I know nothing about them at all, but found a letter from them written to my grandmother that said Hi Cousin. I wanted to know how they were related and was hoping to find them or someone from their family so I could find the connection.I'm sorry I can't help you-I don't know anything about them.

Re: Koslosky & Kislan.....

Hill_darlene — 2004-03-19 07:37:49Z

I am also researching the Koslosky family. My grandmother was Rose Marie Koslovsky (Dec 20-1885 to Oct 28, 1954). Her siblings were Frank Koslosky (1882 to 1932), William Koslosky (1884 to ??), Frances Koslovsky (1888 to 1970), Joseph Koslovsky (1877 to 1965), and Veronica Koslovsky (1874 to 1960). Most of them were born in Nelsonville, Texas with my ggrandfather, Stephan Koslovsky (1846 to 1921) , being born in Moravia. If you have any information which I might could use I will be glad to share what I have. Thanks,

Re: Andrew Wojdacz

spanishrose21 — 2004-02-19 04:07:59Z

I believe that we might be related. My great-grandfather was
Joseph Wojdacz, who married Anna Ciomcia. I was informed that my GGgrandfather's name was Adelbert Wojdacz, and my GGgrandmother was Catherine Bialic. If you have any information on the town location in Poland, this would be a great help to me, as my parents wish to visit the area where
my Mother's ancestors came from, and thus far, we have not been able to locate much. I have a number of towns listed as possibilities, including Samokleski, Szwadka, Osiek, Jaslo, and Sucha Wola--but nothing pin-points a town directly.

I am looking for relatives of Steve Koslosky who would have been born in the Czech Republic and immigrated into Texas in the 1800's
