Posted on: Austin County, Tx Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Austin/523 Surname: Konarik, Konesheck, Koneschik ------------------------- I am looking for descendants of Josef and Emilie Schiller Konarik. This surname is Czech, was originally spelled Koñarík, and pronounced Kone-Yah-Schik. Josef was born in the Industry/Schoenau area of northern Austin County, Texas. His mother was named Anna, and he had three brothers: Johann, William, and Paul. The descendants of Johann and William spell their surname "Konesheck", while the descendants of Paul spell theirs "Koneschik". Emilie Schiller's parents were Vincenz and Anna Schiller (sometimes spelled Silar and Shiller). Josef and Emilie had four children: Anna Alzbeta, who died in infancy; Josef Cenek, born 2-6-1887; Frantiska, born 8-12-1888; and Ida Jindriska, born 2-23-1890. Any information on the descendants of the family of Josef and Emilie Konarik would be greatly appreciated.
