Dear Madam/Sir,

Great Website. My mother's family is from Elkhorn West •••••••• and old family names are Semonco, Dimun and Safran. Todd Sekela, what is/are the names of your family in Elkhorn WV?

Great site in a WWW of too many pages, this one I can use. Paternal Great Grandparents are (as best as I can tell) from this town, then emigrated to Elkhorn, WV to work the coal mines. I was able to converse with Nick a bit and unfortunately there was not a whole lot of family talk about the old country. This site gives me a jumping off point to find out more. WV has excellent digitized birth/death/marriage records. Now onto the church records at familysearch.org.

Thanks for the site Nick!

I am thrilled to come across this webpage. My great-grandfather Alec Hrywniak married Mary Yurchak (Jurak) in the USA. Mary's mother was Julia Kulik and her husband's name was "Wash" (I think). I am looking for any relatives that may have been related to this blood line. Please do not hesitate to email me. I would love to learn more about my family history. I would love to visit this charming area. It reminds me much of my home in Sweet Valley, Pennsylvania USA

Hello there,greetings from uk

Very nice site and great to see where my family originated from. Smetana and Lasky are the names and my cousin just visited there.
If anyone reading this has any family tree information / links that would be super!
