>I am at a stand still on my gggrandfather and gggrandmother. Their names

>I am unable to find the name Czopick in any name search on the internet.
>A cousin of mine said that it was pronounced as Czopeski. I have done

>Here is what I have heard and found out about them:

>1. Martin came to the US first with his 3 brothers ( unknown names).
>2. He arrived in Chicago anywhere from 1855-57.
>3. His wife Paulina Czopick came later.
>4. The couple lived in Geneseo, Henry Co. IL for the 1860 census.
>5. They moved to Augusta, Hancock Co. IL after that and lived there most
>of there lives.
