I'm trying to research Andrew John Slavic/Slaveck. He was born 15 Oct 1889, probably in Turnisce, Slovenia (his wife Anna Kolman was born there in 1892). He died in 1928. They did not immigrate together (may not have known each other 'til the States). Anna Kolman traveled to the US in 1912 (sponsored by Holy Name Cathedral). She lived with relatives in Bridgeport, Connecticut before going on to Chicago, Illinois and marrying Andrew John Slavic/Slaveck. We'd love some help learning more about these people, but would be equally appreciative to learn of any other online groups who specialize in this researching people from this region. This part of Slovenia is close to borders with Austria, Hungary and Croatia. We're told the town has changed control many times over the years. Any ideas? Any advice? Ancestry.com has almost nothing. A death record for Andrew and lines in the 1930 Census for Anna "Slavic" living in Chicago with her 4 children. That's it. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer! - Waldron Faulkner Boston, MA Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
