VOVCSIK, Mihaly Jr. ^{1 2}

  General Notes:

Mike lived in Ludlow, McKean Co., PA and had a daughter Mary. His nephew, John Joseph Dudick would visit Uncle Mike with his kids and go to Ludlow Park. This would have been somewhere in the vincinity of the 1920s or early 1930s. (D-116) Mike listed his place of birth in his 1928 Citizenship application as Nevezke Czechoslovakia meaning that by 1928, his place of birth was in the country of Czechoslovokia instead of Hungary like when he was born.

Mike (Mihaly) came to America sometime between 1902 and 1904 according to Ellis Island records on his 2nd return to this country. He might be the Mihaly Vilcsek who arrived on the Brandenburg from Breman on Apr. 9, 1903. He was listed at age 40 (so the age doesn't match), married, last residence of Oszhunya. He was going to stay with a friend in Kingstown, PA named Jedko Walaszke. He apparently returned for his wife Anna and they came over on Dec. 1, 1905 from Neovcke, Ungvar on the SS Savonia. Their listed destination was Ohio. They returned to the old country by 1910. On Sep. 6, 1910, he returned by himself on the SS Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. He was going to meet his brother, John Vovcsik in Johnsonburg, PA. Sometime later that year, Anna joined him as their son John was born in Sheffield, PA in Feb. 1911. He also is likely the Mike Vovcsik that went back for a visit in 1937 and returned to New York on Oct. 12 departing from the port of Cherbourg, France. In this record he stated he was married, of the correct age to be this Mike and was naturalized in Smithberg, PA in 1933.
