Dear Listers, This problem has been presented on a list of emigration from Germany, but no decisive information has come out of it, so now I try you Norway-listers, hoping that maybe newspaper articles, perhaps obituaries, can be found in and around Menomonie, WI? I am trying to identify one Dora E. TRINKO who was probably born at ERDWEIS, Niederoesterreich, Austria Nov. 24, 1884 as the daughter of one Jos. Trinko and wife Mary, and who supposedly emigrated to Menomonie, WI about 1892. She married in Milwaukee, WI June 17, 1909 to Christian Johnson from Buffalo Co.,WI, born June 10, 1882. Both parents came from Norway! There are several TRINKO families in and around Menomonie, WI, and I suspect they are all related. I am trying to find information about Dora's background! * Anton Trinko (born 1848) who with wife Maria (born 1855) apparently emigrated in 1891 with 6 children, including Sylvester (1886) said to be born at ERDWEIS in 1886 (re: WW2 draft record). * Johan "John" Trinko (born 1850), Clerk of Court in Dunn Co., WI about 1900, apparently emigrated as a widower in 1888 with a son Joseph (born 1876) * Frank Trinko (born 1857), supposedly emigrated in 1881, settled in Pepin Co., WI * Silvester Trinko (born 1862), supposedly emigrated in 1881, resided at Menomonie, WI One of these Trinkos was a County Official in Dunn Co., WI I believe Anton, John, Frank and Silvester were brothers, and I suspect they had another brother Joseph who married a Mary and who stayed behind in Austria. Their daughter Dora emigrated in the early 1890's, probably accompanying a relative, maybe "uncle" Anton? By the way, I discovered an old debate on ancestry.com including this family (posted in 2004) (This family is, just like Sylvester above, referred to Erdweis): 1. Anna Marie (Kahl)1 Trinko was born in Beinhofen, Austria circa 1770. Anna died Jan 31, 1848 in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria, at 77 years of age. She married Lorenz Trinko in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria, circa 1797. Lorenz was born in Erdweis, Austria circa 1766. Lorenz died Aug 26, 1830 in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria, at 64 years of age. Anna Marie (Kahl) Trinko and Lorenz Trinko had the following children: i. Eleanora Trinko was born in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria Feb 17, 1798. ii. Johannes Trinko was born in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria May 28, 1800. iii. Magdalena Trinko was born in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria Jul 9, 1803. iv. Anna Maria Trinko was born in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria Aug 10, 1806. v. Joseph Trinko was born Mar 5, 1808 and died Jun 18, 1873. vi. Elisabetha Trinko was born in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria Nov 10, 1810. vii. Andreas Trinko was born in Erdweis, Niederoesterreich, Austria Nov 30, 1813. Thanks a million for any assistance I can get identifying Dora and her family relationship! Very sincerely yours, Lars E. Oyane
