Surnames: SALONEK Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/wIB.2ACI/260.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi, Cheryl - Thanks so much. I have contacted and received a little information from Robert Salonek, but gave no info on siblings, just his parents (I presume). I'm going to write to him and ask if the other Salonek is his son. ANYTHING you might stumble across while there would be so wonderful. I did get Briget and John's obits from the library. Thanks for replying! Carol
