A map of Austria at the time of your ancestor :

Is that how is the town written in the passport, St. Michael? 12 DERKICSs, 3 DERKITSCHs and 18 DERKITSs came thru Ellis Island to America but none of them seem to be from St. Michael. www.ellisislandrecords.org

On my grandmothers passport is listed Pusztaszentmihaly, along with Gussing and Wein. I know my grandmother came here in 1921, I am pretty sure her parents came here in 1909. They sent for the children as they got the money. My grandmother was left with relatives at the age of 8/9. I know there are still relatives there in Austria.
They settled in Chicago when they came to America, Some records I found showed them as going to NJ or NY. If they went there they only stayed a short time. There is a connection to a Frank Wagner. In the 1930 census Frank Wagner also lived a few doors down in Chicago.

lightningw,

You do know that the town Pusztaszentmihaly is now Sankt Michael im Burgenland, Austria.
Hungary's phone site www.matav.hu/tudakozo/index_e.html is listing a DERKITS Ilona in Budapest's and DERKICS in Szombathely's phone book.
Austria's phone book www.herold.at is listing DERKITS.
Have you also posted on Austria-Hungary Ancestry board? Someone on that board posted with DERKITS.
Check in www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htm for the location of Gussing and Sankt Michael im Burgenland. You will see how close they are to each other.

dwritt: Derkics
I am looking for relatives or information about a Josef and Franz Derkics who left Austria/Hungary for America around 1906 and 1908. Josef was around 31/33 years of age and his two children Franz was 3 or 4 and Anna was around 2. They had a brother Anton that stayed back in Austria. The mother was Julianna. Their US census data says they were from the Szentelek, Vas, Hungary area. They came into New York/Ellis Island and settled in Butler, Pa. Lyndora/Highfield area.
