Notes:

A likely older cousin of this family believes that she was married twice. She believes her second marriage could be to Anton Zajac by whom she had John Anthony Zajac, b. 1891 in Zborov, Slovakia, a half brother to Katarina. John Anthony Zajac's parents were Anton Zajac and Margarita Katarina Hruskovic according to research by Elizabeth Beechwood. If this is the case, John Anthony also had siblings named Joseph, Therecia and Mary that would be a half-siblings to Mary Hruskovic. Mary was born on Jan. 2, 1889. There are persons of the same last name in Zborov Parish that are likely relatives of Catharina. There is a Maria Katalyik who was a godparent to a Joannes ( )kovics on Oc. 2 1867.

Catharina married Josephus HRUSKOVITS on 28 Jan 1861 in Zborov Parish, Saros, SVK. Josephus (son of HRUSKOVITS OR HERSCH OR HERSCHKOVITZ and Marias) was born before 1839 in of Russia or Slovakia; died after 1882 in Of Zborov Parish, Bardejov, Pre. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Jozsef Hruskovics likely emigrated to the U.S. on May 30, 1903 from the port of Bremen. He arrived on June 9, 1903. He was age 45, married, a laborer. He could read and write. He was from Zboro, Hungary. His destination was his son John Kve(xko) in Tuxedo, New York. It looks like he was in America previously in Jan. of 1898 also visiting Tuxedo, New York. Note that his age does not with his birthdate though if this is his record.

Notes:

Maria or her daughter Katie had four children that were born dead. She herself was baptized into the Roman Catholic faith in Zborov Church, Saros, Slovakia. It was probably in Saros, Hungary at the time. Her godparents were: Thomas Vojtuc and Anna (Simeto). (D-57)

Maria Kacsmar came to the U.S. on Mar. 12, 1896 with Maria, age 4 and Anna, age 2. She is listed at age 25 years, married and from Hungary. They departed from the port of Breman and were headed for Bradford, Pennsylvania. (This record is on page 90 of the Ship's roster named Saale built in 1886.)

In the 1920 census, Mary gives her place of birth as Cartva, Hungary like her daughter lists. I need to study to see if the baptismal record I found for her would be the same place with a different name due to political boundary changes.

Maria married Mihaly \ Michael KACSMAR before 1891. Mihaly (son of Gyorgy \ Georgius KACSMAR and Anna KURUTZEK \ KURUZEK \ KUNINCS?K \ KYSZCZAK) was born on 20 Oct 1869 in Koprivnica, Giraltovce, Slovakia; was christened on 20 Oct 1869 in Koprivnica, Giraltovce, Slovakia; died in May 1949 in Degolia, Mckean, PA, USA.

Notes:

John Dudick was born and raised in Bradford, Pennsylvania. He enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Force Reserve as an aviation cadet in 1944. He was called to active duty in March 1945. The war in Europe ended in May of 1945, and aviation cadets were not needed so he did not get a chance to fly. Interestingly, he graduated from St. Bernard High School in June of 1945, 3 months after he was called to active duty according to the Bradford Era Newspaper. He did solo, at his own expense, at Desert Skyway Airport, Boulder City, Nevada in November, 1945. He did not see combat but was a member of the occupational forces in Germany after the war was over. In a June 29, 1945 Bradford Era newspaper, his parents had received notice that he was promoted from Private to Corporal. He did get to sit in on the Nuremberg War Trials in the fall of 1946.

John's first job after the war was with Kendall Refining Co., Bradford, Pennsylvania This is the company that he loyally worked for, for forty-one years until retiring in January of 1990.

He had performed all types of work while in maintenance with painters, electricians, welders, machinists, riggers and millwrights.

He continued as consultant in this position for the first summer of his retirement. Several excellent articles on John Dudick are in "The Puller" magazine. (See Feb. 1990 issue for retirement photos) (D:DOC)

He met his wife, Doris Forte, in December, 1946. They eloped to wed in February, 1949 while she was in the process of working towards her nursing degree. Doris is a steady and wise mother of four and grandmother of seven. She's an interesting person to talk with. She enjoys children, grandchildren, traveling, reading, knitting, and needlecraft. She remembers fondly her interest of her youth, that of roller skating. She and her friends apparently spent much of their free time at the rink and were quite skilled.
