Barbara,
Rubaninsky and Uher families are from Lubina in Slovakia. Many of them came to St Louis in the early 1900s through some form of group or chain migration (still trying to piece it together). I recognize those names from having gone through the Evangelical Lutheran church (Lubina) baptism and marriage books from the 1800s. SO easy to find people! Email me and let's talk!
