Hello, I'm looking for information about my great great grandparents John and Elizabeth Jarabek.I'm interested in their ancestor's and descendants. They immigrated to the US from Kuklo Slovakia in 1901 and 1906. They settled in Cleveland Ohio. According to John's death cert. his mother was Rosie Komornik and his father was named John Jarabek as well. John Jr. was born 1860 and died 1-11-1916. Elizabeth was born 9-10-1860 and died 9-29-1921.John was a laborer in a foundry. They had 7 children-Joseph Jarabek, Andy Jarabek,Steve Jarabek, Dick Jarabek, Helen Jarabek, Louise Jarabek, and Martin Jarabek. Andy went to S Dakota, Steve went to N Dakota, Joseph had 2 boys and 2 girls and worked for the railroad and was a shoe maker. His youngest son Ed was a pilot in a war. They lived in Cleveland. Dick went to Michigan and was a farmer with 4 sons. Helen was a seamstress with 3 boys and 2 girls through her marriage to Paul Flamik, Louise had a daughter named Louise and a son named George. If you know any more about any of these people please email me!
