CUK, Susan

I am searching for information on the GLAVACH family. My great grandfather Andrew GLAVACH and his brother Joseph GLAVACH came to the United States around 1906. Andrew Glavach was born 27 November 1889, at (we believe) Crensovci, Slovenia. I am trying to determine any information on Andrew, his parents, and his siblings. I am also looking for any information relating to his voyage to America (Ship Name, Port, etc.). We have some unverified information that his father was John GLAVAC' and his mother was Marija CULIC'. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

GORSHA, Newton Joseph "Bonnie"

eMail address: bgorsha@linknet.net

I am seeking information on my grand parents, JOHN GORSHA and his wife MATTIE WILLIAMS. They lived in Tangipahoa Parish in south Louisiana. They had a son, my father, JOHN GORSHA, who died in 1956 at Morgan City, Louisiana. They lived at or near Frenier, Louisiana from about 1890 to 1901. My father, John Gorsha was raised by a Picou family, and according to the 1900 census was born about 1895. I need help badly, and am willing to pay whatever it costs, within reason, for help in finding out something about my ancestors.

I am very interested in my mother's family, who are from Skofja Loka and Godesic. My mother's maiden name is Ann HAFNER. Her parents, my grandparents, are Mary KRIZJA (maiden name) born 1880 and Joseph HAFNER, born 1878 or 1879. My grandmother's brother's name is Frank KRIZJA. My grandfather's mother's name is Polona HAFNER. My grandfather also has a brother named Steven HAFNER. I know of some cousins to my mother's family with the last name of BOBNAR. Mother's name is Ana (KRIZJA) BOBNAR. Her children are: Peter (who I believe still lives in Skofja Loka), Michael (I have met him and he lives in Australia), Alex (I have met him, he lives in Canada), Ludvik and Ivanka. My mother's sisters and brothers are: Joseph (born September 1905), Mary (born October 1906), Paula (born January 1908), Molly, John and Millie. Joseph, Mary and Paula were born in Skofja Loka, the rest in the USA. The home my grandparents lived in is still being lived in by either my BOBNAR or KRIZJA cousins. If you know of anyone that may be related to me, I would be very thankful if you would eMail me the information. I want my children and now my grandchildren to know their roots. My mother's name is Anne HAFNER GREENWOOD. I am sorry that I cannot read Slovenian, but my mother can.

PASKALL, Lloyd

eMail address: lpaskall@axionet.com

My grandfather was born circa 1862 at Chernawka, Bukowina (Bukovyna), Austria, with the first name Gregory (Georg) PASCAL. He married Anita Anna BODNARIUC, circa 1887. My father was born 3 February 1894 at Cernowitz (Chernivtsi, Cernovcy), Bukowina (Bukovyna) (or possibly Chernawka), Austria with the given name of Vacile PASCAL. They emigrated to Canada circa 1912. Vacile used the name William in Canada, possibly a given name of Wilhelm? He found work at Calgary, Alberta Canada, reported as a registered alien at Banff, Alberta, Canada, during WW I. He arrived at Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, Canada in 1916 and married Clara Emma BROCKMAN 25 December 1920. Shortly after arriving in Rocky Mountain House, he went to work for Canadian National Railways. He received his naturalization papers in 1921 with the name William PASKALL. I have no record of any name change. Any information would be appreciated immensely.


PETKOVSEK, III, Lucas
5575 Duff Street, Beaumont, Texas 77706-, USA

Lucas PETKOVSEK (my grandfather) was born 4 October 1855, at Laibach, Austria. He emigrated to the US in October 1877 via New Orleans, LA. He married in New Orleans in 1880 and his marriage license states his parents were Andrew and Ursula Petkovsek. Lucas, never returned to his homeland, and died in Natchez, Mississippi in 1936. Family records confirm the preceding information. A request to the Ljubljuna church found no record of Lucas Petkovsek's birth, or Andrew Petkovsek and Ursula (Last Name Unknown) marriage. I would appreciate any information, advice, or assistance in ways to further search for information about him.

PEVC, Paula Jean
eMail address: pjinco@hotmail.com

I am searching for information on my grandfather, John PEVEC. To the best of my knowledge, he was born at Ljubljana, in a town called Malaloka between the years of 1887-1889. We know that he served in the Austrian army prior to coming to the United States. What we would like to know is the month, day, and year of his birth, the name of the church in which he was baptized (we believe he was Catholic), the name of the priest or pastor who baptized him, the christian name and surnames of both his mother and father (my great-grandparents). Finally, the correct spelling of the last name PEVEC - is it PEVEC or PEVC? (We can verify this by either the church or baptismal certificate) If you uncover any additional information, I would be very greatful in anything you are able to provide me. My appreciation in advance.

PINTAR, Shirley
eMail address: spinatar@exec.com

I am looking for information on the SINUR family. Frank SINUR immigrated before the turn of the century, came to Cleveland, Ohio, and married Marie KOTZMAN about 1900, also from Slovenia. They came from Ljubljana or near there. Then they moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Frank SINUR's brother John was a mayor of Ljubljana, or some town close by. I would appreciate any information on the SINUR family.
