Pennsylvania Blahniks
DNA indicates these Blahniks are from the Libkov family Haplo I2a or I-P37.2 


The Myto Blahniks come from the Blahnik Pocket in SW Bohemia.  The first is a documented family back to Bohemia from the Myto area goes back to Jan who was born abt 1766 but not in Myto.  His grandson was Joseph born 1834.  Joseph came to America and first lived in Milwaukee, WI.   Later Joseph's wife came to Milwaukee from Bohemia with the children. One of the descendents changed the name spelling to BLAMICK instead of Blahnik.

The other Blahnik from Czech to Pennsylvania has been a bit more difficult to research. There was a Joseph and Barbara Blahnik who lived in Pittsburgh, PA and appear to have had three children.  Franz was born in 1879 and died on Feb 26, 1879 on 114 Grant Street in Pittsburgh.  There appear to be two other children who show up with this couple in the Pennsylvania birth records for 1709-1950 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/V2NB-S27.  The last name here is spelled Blachnik.  Josephine was born 3/24/1875 and Joseph on 8/5/1872.  This will appear at the bottom of the page after the Myto family.


 

MYTO BLAHNIKS
In Jan 2014 Myto Blahnik descendent Mary Brougher Hutton contacted the editor of this web page and shared a booklet written by Donald J. Blahnik (1929-2005).  She had contributed to his research and shared photos.   Donald was a genealogist who was the grandson of Joseph and Josephine (Schneider) Blahnik.  His father, Sylvester, had kept a notebook with many of the family names, birth places and dates.  Donald attended several of the Czech Genealogical Society Conferences and said that Joel Blahnik had inspired him to write their story.  Donald's wife Eleanor said that they traveled to Myto, Czech to research further back, but were unable to find records prior to Jan born  about 1766 and lived at Myto house 153 and 12.  Much of this information is also cross references with census and other documentation.  One of the most wonderful contributions are the old photos which give us a better picture into the past.  The Myto group found they were part of the Lipkov group by joining the DNA group!

Donald collected the stories that are shared below.  He is no longer alive, but his wife and sons want his work to be remembered.  Thanks you Donald Blahnik 1929-2005.


Blahnik family location map

Descendants of Jan Blahnik  c1766 Myto
some use the name BLAMICK now

The oldest Blahnik from this family was a Carpenter name Jan (John) who lived in Myto, Bohemia.  Myto is about a 1/2 drive to the east from Plzen (26 miles).  His son Vaclav was also a Carpenter and lived at #153 Myto where his son Joseph was born in 1834.  Joseph's family would immigrate to America.  This family would settle in both PA and Milwaukee, WI.
 


J
oseph came to America on the MAIN on April 20, 1874 with his name spelled Joseph Blamick on the passenger list.  Later one of Joseph's sons (Joseph 1858-1926) would adopt the last name spelling of Blamick.  Donald Blahnik indicated in his booklet that Joseph's son Jakob also immigrated with him at about the age of 12.  But it appears Joseph sent for his son after he arrived since there is a record for Jakub immigrating on the SS ODER (shown left) arriving in New York on Dec 1 1875.  Two years later the rest of the family came to America.  Immigration records show; Josephine (Schneider) Blahnik, age 37, with 4 children, Joseph (18), John (11), Mary (8) and Caroline (5) sailed from Bremen, Germany on the S.S. ODER arriving on February 12, 1877.  

 



According to Donald Blahnik the family was thought to have gone directly to Bradenville, Westmoreland County and settled in Deny Township, PA.  The family worked in the coal mines about 30 miles east of Pittsburgh, PA.  Joseph and his three sons worked there.  John (1865-1928) broke his leg and his brother-in-law, Andre Titl, was able to get him a job working for the Pennsylvania Railroad.  His youngest daughter, Carolina, married Martin Safranek and settled in Milwaukee, WI.  Joseph retired from the mines in 1899 and moved to Milwaukee, WI with his wife to stay with his daughter and her family.  They can be found living with their daughter and son, Jakob in the 1910 Milwaukee census records.  Joseph  died of old age in Milwaukee at the age of 84.  He and his wife Josephine are buried at the Holy Cross Cemetery in Milwaukee, WI.

 

 


1- The oldest son Joseph (1858-1926) married another Bohemian immigrant named Katerina Vokac. Joseph changed the spelling of his name to "Blamick" but was the only member of his family to do so.  Joseph
 immigrated to America with his mother in 1877He became a coal miner but appears in the 1920 Alleheny, PA census as a laborer at a Tin Mill.  The couple had six children and their oldest son (Joseph 1889-1918) died in France during WWI.  They had three daughters who all married three brothers with the last name of Cipro.  Joseph's work played a role in his health and ultimately his death. Joseph Blamick's cause of death was listed as Miner's Asthma.  He was 68 years old when he died.
 

There was a second son named Jan (John) Krititel Blahnik who lived from December 03, 1860-February 01, 1861 in Cz.

2- The second surviving son was Jakob Blahnik (1863-1932).  Jakob was the son who traveled to America alone at the age of 12 in 1875 aboard the SS ODER arriving in New York on Dec 1 1875.  He worked in the Coal mines in Loylhanna, PA.  His sister, Carolina Blahnik, had moved to Milwaukee, WI and married Martin Sapanek in 1892.   Martin ran a Butcher Shop and she had a boarding house.  It is not clear how early the family may have lived in Milwaukee, but Jakob married Bohemian immigrant Antonia (Hejva Hejna) Blazek on Oct 17, 1886 at St. Wenceslaus Church in Milwaukee, WI.  Both Agnes and Alois (Louey) were born there so the couple stayed there until at least 1888.  The family returned to Pittsburgh, PA where Elizabeth (Elsie) was born in 1892.  The 1900 census shows them living in Bradenville, Pa and he was again working as a Coal Miner.  Records show that they acquired some property in Latrobe and one on Gertrude Street in 1907.

Something happened about 1909 that is not clear. Jakob left his family in PA and moved back to Milwaukee.  The family story was that Jakob left one day for cigarettes and never returned..  He appears in the 1910 census living with his parents and sister and brother in law.  He probably worked in his brother in law Martin Safranek's butcher shop and took care of the delivery horse and wagon as well as other odd jobs.  Donald said that he slept with his father and his mother had a separate room.  His mother died in 1912 and his father in 1918.  By 1920 Jakob was listed as a mental patient in the Milwaukee County Asylum.  He died in the Asylum.  During this time period it was unlikely for a person to leave an asylum once they were admitted. His cause of death was listed as Stomach cancer.

Jakob and Antonia's daughter Agnes died in 1916 at the age of 29.  Elizabeth (Elsie) married James Bougher in 1915 and Alois (Louey the Barber) supported his mother until her death.  He filled out a Draft reg card in 1942 but had a cripple right foot.  Louis worked as a Barber in Milwaukee but did need to have his lower leg amputated when he was in this seventies.

3- The third son was also named Jan Krititel (John) Blahnik and lived 1865-1928.  Krtitel was not his middle name, he was named for John the Baptist. He immigrated to America with his mother in 1877John was also a Coal miner.  He married the Bohemian immigrant Mary Titl from Strasice, Czech in 1889 Irwin, PA.   Unfortunately John broke both of his legs in the coal mine and ended up having to find other work.  His wife's brother got him a job as Car inspector for Pennsylvania Rail Road.  The couple had eleven children. The youngest appears to be Frank Blahnik born in 1910 in PA.  Unfortunately when the 1917 flu epidemic came through, Mary died leaving her family behind.  He died at the age of 63 from Lobar Pneumonia.   Perhaps the coal mining had influenced his lungs.  John, John's wife Mary and their son, Ludwig were all buried in Voeghly Cemetery in Troy Hill, Pittsburgh PA. The cemetery closed and Charles Blahnik moved the family to Allegheny Memorial Park, McCandless Twp in 1945 but it is not certain if Mary was moved with them.

4-The forth surviving child was Mary Blahnik born July 2, 1868 in Myto.  She immigrated to America with her mother in 1877.  She married Rudolph Yanda in Lotrobe, PA.  Donald indicated she made hats and had wonderful handwork.  He said she lived in Milwaukee in 1908 but was in PA at the time of her death.  Her husband was a coal miner. they had 5 children to support so, if the miners went on strike, he would  go to VA for work during those times.  Donald indicated that Mary died from TB at Dixmont Hospital, Pittsburgh, Indiana, PA

5- The last child born to Joseph and Josefa was their daughter Caroline Blahnik on Nov 4, 1871 in Myto. She also immigrated to America with her mother in 1877.   Caroline moved to Milwaukee and married Martin (Szafranek Safranek) Sapanek on Dec 18, 1892.  Martin was from Tabor, Bohemia  and was the son of Adalbert and Maria.  Donald Blahnik said that Martin set up a butcher shop at 254 Brady St., Milwaukee's East side which he operated for 50 years.  Caroline's parents and her brother Jakob  appear living with them in the 1910 Milwaukee census records. He helped support his brother in law by having him do odd jobs and work in his butcher shop for him.  Martin died in 1935 but Caroline lived until 1958.  They are both buried at Forest Home Cemetery, Milwaukee, WI.
