Searching for Joseph Hupka descendants. He was born in Germany in 1840.

As far as I know I am not a direct descendant of this Joseph Hupka, but perhaps a collateral relative. This is the one of many Joseph Hupkas/Hubkas whom I believe may be the first cousin of my great grandfather, Anton Hubka, and his half-brother, Jan/John. I believe him to be from Kocin, Kralovice (Kralowitz), Bohemia, Austria-Hungary. This Joseph emigrated from Bremen, Germany, on the SS "Nurnberg," arriving at Balto. in May, 1877, at age 37 with wife, Franziska, 44, and son, Joseph, 9. He died in Baltimore in 1929. The son, Joseph "II", died of TB in the Md. State TB Sanatorium at Hauvers, Frederick Co., MD, in 1920. Since I have not found Joseph and Francis on the 1880 Census (empty nest in 1900), I know of only one other child, Frances, who married Charles Ruby, and had the following children: Anna b. ~1909, mar. Otis Malls William b. ~1915 Henry b. ~ 1920 Albert b. ~1924 I have the Census schedules, some marriage and death records, but not much else. You may email me off-list for further information.
