Title: NY Passenger Arrival Lists 1892-1924 Ellis Island

From Dorothy Janca 3/23/11
Hi Lori,
Yes, I do have these documents. Vaclav (James) first went to Bessemer in UP Michigan and worked on setting railroad ties, I believe. He said until the "Deigo's ( sorry for the politically incorrect for Italians) would work for 5 cents less" . He was there with his Halama relatives. Uncle Jacob Halama, as I recall who is listed on the Ellis Island info, and cousins Frank and ?forgot? These Halama men later died in a boating accident around Halloween 1930 on Lake Gogebic. It was a big deal because 3 generations of Halama men died inc. an 11 year old boy. I think 7 died, some friends of the family all together. Boat was overloaded and they wore wool clothing that pulled them down.At some point 1914-16 Vaclav went to Chicago where his sister Agnes Halama Kleisner and her husband lived. He stayed with them and worked carpentry until he met my grandmother Marie Vichr. She was born in Chicago, but only 2-3 months after her parents came to US, but she never let anyone forget she was American born. He says SHE asked him to marry her. He was doing some work on a boarding house her mother, a widow, and sisters ran. There were 2 properties on Trumbull Ave. by th 1930's.
Both of my grandparents died in Phoenix--Maricopa Co., she in December1969 and he in June 1983, as did my mother Lucille Halama Janca in July 1972. My dad Stanley John Janca died in Arkansas in March 2009 as I recall. We all came to AZ by car--used to come for the summers 1956-59 because I was allergic to just about everything blooming in the Illinois summer. Finally in 1959 we moved here, my grandfather retired and came here and my aunt Margie Halama Stepanek and family too. Aunt Margie died in 1965 of a brain tumor. Only my aunt Florence Halama Hlavacek Wielgus and family stayed in Illinois. One cousin, Jerry Stepanek whom I never see is still here along with me. My brother Tim is in California, the Halvacek cousins in Illinois and their 3 kids each, kind of scattered around right now--Washington DC, New York, and Illinois.I was born at the Berwyn McNeil Memorial Hospital which was across from the Moose lodge, near the train tracks from downtown Chicago.We lived in Berwyn, 1447 S. Scoville Ave and before that with my grandfather who owned the building at 1926 S. Oak Park Ave in Berwyn. My Dad had a jewelry and watch repair business on Cermak Rd--6804 1/2 W. Cermak ()I think) --not far from the Olympic theater. Later it was located on Cermak Rd, about 3 doors down from the intersectrion with Oak Park Ave. on the North and west side. There was a nice old bank across the street, that I think Berwyn was trying to keep as an historical building and it was down the street, and across from the old location of Weber Travel Agency. My aunt Florence lived in La Grange Park, and then in Chicago on Naper Rd near Milwaukee and Devon (where the Big Dawg hot dog stand is and also near St. Adalbert Cemetery) and now she is in Aurora near my cousin Jim and my cousin Janice is in Naperville.

Census: 1900

It says that Anna (Selnar) Blahnik who died in 1918 was survived by 5 daughters but I think those are the ones from Joseph's 1st wife. Anna and Joseph had 10 children, 6 were daughters. The family had a number of people die from TB, including Anna Selnar-Blahnik according to her death certificate.
Her biological Daughters:
Anna born and died in 1886
Rosalia 1887-1912 (TB)
Matilda (Tillie) 1891-1914 (phitisis on death certificate but that is the Greek term for TB)
Emily 1894-1914 (Mrs. Frank Slavik) - cause of death unknown
Anna 1895-1922 -died from TB - THIS Anna
Theresia 1898-1917 - I'm not sure cause of death-probably TBOnly her daughter Anna Blahnik was still alive when Anna Selnar Blahnik died in 1918. The obituary says her daughter Anna Blahnik was not married. As an aside, the Cheese Maker Anton Blahnik (who lived to more than 100 years) was very lucky or had great genes. He was one of the few family members who did not get TB and die. His brother Wenzel (1889-1907) also died from TB. His brother Leo died quite young (1896-1912) but he died from falling off a wagon. So this poor family with 10 natural children had
2 die within a month of being born
5 die from TB (plus the mother Anna Selnar- and her husband Joseph died 2 years later from Bronchiatosis? TB?)
1 married but still died before her parents and only one year after marriage - cause unknown
1 fell from a wagon and died before the parents�
That seems to make Anton James Blahnik 1885-1989, the Cheesemaker and husband of Bozena (Bessie) Ouradnik the only survivor of this biological family! And lived to 104!

Hi Pat:
I am not following the Blahnik lines. Anna Kostka Blahnik is my wife's great aunt. We visited the Kostka, Stangel, Blahnik homeland villages in the Czech Republic in 1998. We conversed at that time with Joel Blahnik from Fish Creek who has made many trips to the old country. Anna Kostka was born in Budenin, Czech Republic which is about 20 miles south of Prague (about half way to Tabor). Thanks much for your offer.
