Surnames: Jindela Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/sqB.2ACIAE/21.1.1 Message Board Post: Hello! Thank you for your reply. Regarding Jindela- I do not know what town.or village they originated from - only Bohemia. They came to America between l867-1869 so therefore they would not be listed in Ellis Island as that only opened in 1892. I did find the name spelled Jendele also. Also the Jindela's I found on Social Security records are my immediate family members- aunts,uncles, cousins etc. Thank you again.
