Research notes I'm just starting this venture.  I have copies of records of my grandfather Jan Swietek, born 2/20/1891 in Piekielniku, Poland.  His parents were Ignacy Swietek and Anna Servinska.  He came to the US around 1906/09 on the Kronprinzessin Cecilie.  US family name has spelling variations; Svientek, Swentek, Sventek.  We were always told we were Slovak but I see on one paper a place of residence was Pekelnik, Hungary
