My Tingers say they are from Bohemia (austrian hungarian empire) but I have
finally found a few new Tingers giving their birthplace in 1874 as Nyseger
or Nysegear Hungaria-little difficult to read the spelling. Anyone out there
with any information would be great. Thanks, Rose

Maybe someone can help me-My great grandfather immigrated to the US in 1870.
I found him on the 1900 census in New York which is where we are all from.
I cannot find him on the 1880 census and think maybe he came into a
different port and he did not come directly to New York. Is this
possible-the surname is Tinger and I know from reading this board that there
are Tingers in Texas. Any ideas or help is appreciated thanks, Rose

I received my great-grandmothers obit from the Denni Hlasatel. She was
supposed to have been born in Vienna, Austria, however, her obit says she
was born in VIDNI. I could not find it on any Czech map, and the translation
website I used couldn't handle it.
Is VIDNI Vienna?
Anyone's help would be graciously appreciated.
Thanks,
Denise

Thanks! I heard from John Venham, who informed me that VIDEN is Vienna, and
VIDNI means "in Vienna".
I sure appreciate everyone's help.
Thanks,
Denise

Hi List !
Im at a brick wall of sorts.
I seek my GGF's home village in the CR.
If I know, but ONLY from oral family history that my GGF
was married in April 1877, (or 1872) in BOHEMIA, but his wife was born in Praha, IF for a moment I assume they married in Praha, would I need to know the Parish name, in order to find the right book for April 1877 and 1872?
OR would I have to look at all the differant Parishes for those two dates? Is there such a list or info available?
No luck in IL w/ his Decl of Inten
Hi
I grew up in Cicero when it was a beautiful City, clean, terrific friendly folks. As I recall, most of our neighborhood was Bohemian, not sure about Cicero being mostly Polish......I thought it was majority Bohemian, but then what does a kid know back then. I attended Morton High School before they became two schools, east and west campus. I lived at 15th and 61st avenue. I've been back to Cicero/Chicago many times since I left there for good in 1954 when my parents elected to move to southern Wisc.
I am looking for info on ANTON BORKOVEC. He is the father of JAMES BORKOVEC
who was born in 1854 in Prussia/ Bohemia. I know that James was married in
Glenmore, Wi in 1879 to ANNA PERSIEK, PRIZEK/ PARIZEK/ PARIZACK. The info
I have also states that ANTON'S wife was MARY, but I don't have her last
name either. Thanks. Carol at rcbork@accessus.net
The the Czech and Slovak American Geneology Society of Illinois has a web
site but the magazine is not on line that I know of. Denni Hlasatel is
definately not on line but for people in the US their local libraries can
borrow microfilms of various dates. They have to know what date range they
want though. The author of the article might be able to help and he could be
contacted through the society.

Does anyone have any idea what Catholic Parish in Chicago the address of 78th
and Woodlawn would be in, in 1904, or how I could find out.
Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

It is possible but it could just be a case of the census taker mangling the
name. My HOSEK family came to NY in the 1860s but on the 1870 census we
couldn't find them. By chance we found them and the name was written as
HOUSAC and even their given names were pretty mangled. Anton became
Thomas--perhaps they called him "Tonny" and the census taker thought
"Tommy". Were you checking the Soundex for 1880 or for a location in which
you know they lived later? The 1880 Soundex only covers families who had

My ancestors lived in two different Bohemian Settlements in Michigan. The
Old Mission area of Penninsula Township in Grand Traverse County and in
Wilson Township, Antrim County, near the Charlevoix County town of Each
Jordan. The Bohemian Settlement at Wilson Township was about 1/3 Moravian.
Hi. I see a lot of talk about settling in Chicago......does anyone have any
info on Czechs that settled in Michigan? What areas, stories, etc.? My great
grandparents started a dairy farm in Hemlock, Michigan. My father was born
near Detroit. I know that we had Czech relatives that lived Montrose,
Owosso, Bannister & Saginaw.
Anyone out there have any info? Anyone researching Czech families from
Michigan?
Thanks, Linda Visnaw

Hello list,
I am doing research in Lake co. IND . I am working with a reel that
has Hungarian Church records on it. It goes into several cities in the area.
One of them is Whitting IND. Reel # 1887899 item #8 has St John the
Baptist church on it . As I was going thru it I noticed there are families
listed from Czech... This is marriages, but unlike the other enrties nearly
all the czech families have the place of origin listed !! Also it gives
both parents names , maiden included and date o
Hi all,
My name is Robin Hannig and I recently joined this email list. I am
researching my husband's HANNIG line and believe I have traced them back to a
town that was part of Germany but is now part of the Czech Republic.
Up until now, the closest I could come to the origin of the Hannigs was
Silesia. But now I have received documents from a relative, which include
what he called a "citizenship" paper, dated 6 March 1889, from Schlesien,
Freiwaldeu, Germany. On it, it acknowleges the birth
