Research notes |
My grandpa Gura came from Jablonka in early 1900's and always said he was Slovak. He married a Mary Buron. My dad is the youngest of all his siblings and is the last surviving at 80 years old. Mary died when my dad was 5 years old of TB. I believe Gpa Gura had a sister named Anna who lived here for a few years, but then moved back to Poland, and I THINK she ultimately went to Germany. I have some old letters from a Margrit Bremer, Madamenweg 61 3300 Brauneschweig Germany. This address is old, I also had a cousin over there my Uncle Joe used to write to who was named Walter Gura. Other addresses for the letters was to Karol Novak, Jablonka Orova, with another name Anna Sictwag or Tictwag Walter's address was from Bohnhofstrabe, Germany. Gpa Gura left from the Bremer Port in Germany and came to America in 1909. They were married in 1916 in Illinois and lived in Joliet, Illinois. |
