Hi All I am interested in finding any information on the family of Jacob OVEN and Frances POZNIK of Strahomer, Slovenia. Jacob and Frances had 13 children, among them were: Josef (my grandfather), born 1875; Anton, the youngest, born 1886; Gertrude; and Rose, who died at 16 years old from tuberculosis. Several of the other children died during the same year (?) from an epidemic. Anton married Elizabeth GLAVEN in Ljubljana in 1910. Joseph and Anton are the only ones known to have immigrated, both moving to Eveleth, MN. Joseph married Marija TRONTELJ in 1907 in Eveleth, MN. There was a John POZNIK, b 1875, who married Helen REBOL in 1901 at Ely, MN, who is believed to be a brother (?) to Frances. I would appreciate any information on this family or any other researchers involved with these surnames. Thanks for your time.
