Hi Sandi,

I can't help on any of your names, but maybe you can help me on mine since
the cities and time period are about the same.

My father JOHN/JOHAN GASKO was born in 1901 in Nagy-Szent-Miklos, Torontal
County, Hungary.

My grandfather NICHOLAS GASKO visited his sister, KATHERINE (GASKO) KLUPP in
1901 in Wyandotte south of Detroit. My father was 10 months old at the
time. NICHOLAS went back to Hungary and died in 1910. My widowed
grandmother HELEN (WUNSCHEL) GASKO brought her three children back to the
states circa 1911 and settled in NYC.

Ditto here. The GASKO's were Catholic and, I have been told, some are still
in Timisoara, now Romania, and some may have been buried in a Catholic
cemetery in Sannicolau-Mare where my father was born.

Don't go to a lot of extra trouble, but if you happen to see the name GASKO
in any of your searches, keep me in mind.

Thanks, and happy searching.
