Born around 1859 to Frank and Marie Picha and emigrated around age 15 to southern Minnesota possibly with brother Joe who settled in Chicago. Married Jacob Bastyr in 1875, who died of typhoid fever when Rosalia was pregnant with their 3rd daughter. Then married my GGF Joseph Dvorak in 1880 and they had 5 more children in the Wheatland, Rice Co, MN and New Prague, MN areas. She died in 1943 in Lonsdale, MN. Just found out from her funeral record that she was from Visny...now to figure out which one! Found her in Visny, Hamr/Tabor! The surname correct spelling is Piha.

Schmidt

My grandfather Wilhelm Joseph was born August 1880 in (I believe) Gablone, Bohemia, Austria (now the Czech Republic. His parents were Wilhelm Schmidt and Marie Fiedler. He always told his grandchildren that he was the 5th Wilhelm in a row. I had a genealogist do some research and he came up that his grandfather was Josef Schmid, which would make him the second in a row (or junior). He arrived in the Port of New York, on 13 Sept 1906, on the "Deutschland" out of Hamburg. I believe he was cabin boy on board and possibly living in Leipzig at that time. I would like any information on him, his siblings, his father and mother. Ray Sarosy

Alois later changed his name to Louis Vogalla. I would like to find living relatives. Your help is greatly appreciated. Linnea Hyder
