Marvin G. Konoske, age 74, of Chapin Heights Apartments in Florence, died Sunday, May 21, (2000), at his home.

There was no public visitation held. Burial was in Commonwealth Cemetery.

The Jacobs-Lundholm Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements.

I am researching my Konoske family line. My family immigrated to Brown Co., WS in the early 1870's from Prussia. The original family name was Choinowsky. Michael Konoske and his wife, Caroline, brought their children John, Emma, Emilie, Robert, Herman and Fred with them. I have used the English versions of their names. Any knowledge of descendants in or about Florence County, WS, or any other location, would be appreciated. I would also enjoy sharing the information that I have.

Kathy,
I have a cousin that has information on the Konoske family. She has tried to contact you but your mail has bounced. Please email me for her address.

I am researching my new found family. Fred Konoski married Harriot Gorkey in Little Sumnico 1892.

I just ran across this Konoske thread from 2003. Fred Konoske was the younger brother of my ancestor Hermann Konoske. If you see this and are still interested in Konoske information, please let me know. I have a good deal of early Konoske information.

I would be interested in any early Konoske family information you could provide. Thank you.
