I just read your post from 2004 re: George Drabek of Chicago Il. What year(s) are your referring too? My fathers name is George Drabek and is still with the family, but his fathers name was also George Drabek, I was told he passed away in the early 1960's. He would have been in his early 50's. What caught my attention is we lived in a suburb of chicago.

My grandfather's name was Joseph Drabek & his parents were Frank & Josephine. He came over to the US as a stow away on a pickle boat my dad Richard told us (from Czehoslovakia.)Joseph married Emma Sunzytk & they had 3 girls - Agnes, Evelyn, Anne & my dad Richard. If I remember right my grandpa also had a brother that came over with him but he landed up in TX.

I am the Daughter of George L Drabek and Susan e.
Yes my Grandfather George Sr. passed away shortly after I was born, 1962-63. And yes he was in his early 50's, passed from stomach cancer. His passing was in Chicago, IL. My Dad & Grandfather had multiple properties, Ohio, Wisconsin and we resided in Highland park , IL. We then moved to Kansas City, Mo. In the early 70's.
The only odd thing is, my father was an only child. By any chance does the middle name Latin mean anything?

Hi Ryan, My name is Dorothy Drabek. Have always lived in Nebraska other than 4 years in Wichita, KS when my ex was in the Air Force. My grandfather was Joseph Drabek & him & his wife Emma located in Farwell, Nebraska. I'm not sure of his siblings as he died before I was born. They are both buried in the Czechoslovacian cemetery in Farwell, NE. I sure somewhere down the line we are related to Doug Drabek too. I will have to do some investigating. I did notice that when traveling through San Antonio, Texas I went through the phone book & there are lots of Drabeks!
