Teresa and Frank Kalakewich are surely family and I would like to find out if Frank is my grandmothers brother. All I heard was they were married in Pittsburgh! Maybe if I contact the churches they will have a record of the marriage in 1915. I am going to plan to go to Charleroi, Donora, Monnessin one day. Thank you so much!
