• Notes

  The spelling of this name is any of the following in this country: Volcsik, Vovcsik, Vocsik, Vovcsol, Volcik,Welshik, Wolfshik, and/or Wolfe. The name is also spelled "Wojciech" in Polish. The name Volcik originally goes back to Saint Adalbert Vojtech who converted Poland to Christianity. He was the first Bishop of Prague from 982 onwards and a Czech Prince. He was expelled from Bohemia in 995 and went to Poland in 996 on a mission to the Prussians. He was killed by the Prussians in 997 and canonized in 999. (D-125) This information on Saint Adalbert was from a Wojciech descendant whose family came from Hluboczek, Borszczow, Galecia, Austria. It is now a part of the Ukraine. (D-125b) Anna, the wife of their son, George Vosick, lived to over 100. When interviewed, she said that Mike and Maria Vocsik were blessed with 11 children. Mike's son, Mike, came over as an adult after 1920 when Sue and John Joseph Dudick were married according to John and Sue Dudick. According to the immigration records for his daughter Veron Vovcsik Perilla, she was born in Nevicske, Hungary (now Nevitske in the Ukraine) in 1884. Her father, Mihaly Wocsik/Vovcsik was living in Nevicske in this 1910 emigration record for his daughter. Other persons of this same surname spelled Vovcsik from the Nevicske area are Gabor, Jozsef, Zsuzsa, Mihaly, and Julia. There is an Olean Volcsik who came on the Southwark through Antwerp Belgium from .....arina, Hungary in 1899. She was born about 1878 and is a peer and possible relative of this family. Julia is probably the one who arrived on May 26, 1910 from the port of Fiume on the Pannonia. She was age 26 at the time and might be a spouse to one of Mike's sons. I hired a researcher to photograph and send me the 1869 census for Neviczke. I found this Michael with his wife, children and 2 siblings living in Neviczke, Hungary. They were all born in the same state and it is very difficult to read. It looks like the abbreviation "Helbe". The spelling for the state where born was common amongst those that lived in Neviczke. Other clearer spellings look like Helybe or Hebybe. The town's name for the census was spelled Nevicke, Magyar with Magyar being the state's name in 1869. It looked like all of them had been born in Nev. or Nevicke (Helybe, Magyar). There is a Helybe, Magyar in a foreign version of Wikipdedia so I'm taking that that is the correct spelling. In this 1869 census Mihaly, Maria and family are living in the same household with brother Gyorgy's family. They are living just 4 doors down from Janos Vovcsik born in 1830 that is also a likely sibling.
