I am looking for information on my ancestors JANICEK and STUDENKA from Liderovice, Vnorovy, which I understand is in Moravia. Ellis Island records indicate that, although living in Moravia, they are Bohemian. I noticed that most of the STUDENKAs coming through Ellis Island are from the same area, so I am hoping to make contact with some of their descendants here in the US or relatives from back home. JANICEK, I recognize, is more common, but I would still be interested in anyone from the same area with the same surname. What I know about Anna STUDENKA: Ethnicity: Bohemian At the age of 32, immigrated to the United States with step-daughter, Marie (age 11), and son Stepan (19 months). Departed Bremen, Germany on S.S. George Washington 16 Apr 1910. Arrived 25 Apr 1910 in New York; processed through Ellis Island Stated that her nearest relative in her country of origin was bil [sic]: Marie KURIVIAL from Liderovice, Znorovy [actually her sister-in-law] Death certificate lists father as Philip STUDENKA, mother as Bessie. She may have had an uncle named Josef STUDENKA who married Anna SUKUP (or SOUKUP); ch: Stepan (m. Apolonia KURYVIAL), John, Frances. What I know about Franz JANICEK: Found on ship mainfest of the S.S. Hannover sailing from Bremen, GER 8 Mar 1902, arr. Baltimore 23 Mar 1902, line#4 (appears to be travelling with Josef TOMECEK from the same place, and maybe Frantisek SEDLACEK from Znorov): JANICEK, Franz 38? M Wid [he did not marry his second wife, Anna STUDENKA, until about 1905.] Occupation: shoemaker; able to read and write Last Residence: Liderovice, Moravia (nationality) Final Destination: Wilson, PA[written lightly] or Baltimore [tic marked] first time in U.S.; not going to join any relative Found on ship manifest of the S.S.

VASICEK[?], RFD. 2, Freeland, MI Height: 5' 9", Complextion fair, Hair blond, Eyes blue Place of Birth: Country: Moravia; City or Town: Liderovice I believe his father's name to be Martin JANICEK; he appears to have had a sister, Marie (who married a KURYVIAL) who died 1925 in Moravia. I have been told that there were PINC relatives living in Cicero, Cook Co., IL (may have been Franz's cousin); Joe and Mary may have been their names; had one son (maybe a Jr.?). There is a family that fits this description in the 1910 census 10th Ward Chicago, Cook Co., IL HH#46, Fam#130, Roll#251, p.198B: PINC, Joseph (head) M W 48? M1 21yrs, b. BOH, parents b.
