csberry: Kristofek
Hi,

I am researching my Kristofek ancestors. George and Katarina Kristofek arrived in New York with 2 young children on June 8, 1888. They purchased a farm in Westmoreland County, PA in 1894 and had 6 children.
- John stayed on the family farm, married Annie Swets and raised 12 children,
- George, my great grandfather, moved his young family to Chicago in about 1906,
- Joseph must have died as a young child,
- Mary married Joseph (Wassily) Shaffern and they had 7 children. Joseph died in the early 1920s and Mary moved to Chicago with her children,
- Anna married Frank Kolish and they had 5 children. Frank died in 1925 and Anna moved her family to Cleveland,
Zophia (Sophie) married Walter Konjura and had 7 children. They all moved to Cleveland in the early 1920s.

I would like to exchange information if this sounds like part of your family.

All the best,
Chris

Few websites for research:
www.iabsi.com/gen/public
www.tccweb.org
www.cisarik.com
www.rootsweb.com/~polwgw/index.html
www.halgal.com
Judging by the SK's phone book www.zoznamst.sk your KRISTOFEKs could be from Bardejov, Poprad, Spisska Sobota.
Looking at the EI manifest most of the KRISTOFEKs were from Uj-bela/Ujbella, Szepes megye, Hungary http://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910 now Nowa Biala, Poland
www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htm
