Hi Dan, don't know if you are still searching for Albert's arrival? I find him arriving,as you stated, on June 13, 1906, Ellis Island, sailed on board The Kaiser Wilhelm II, born about 1876. In Czech, Albert is Vojtech. Under the name Jojheeh Koudelka you will find your Albert. Vojtech was mistranscribed. Albert came from Bilsko. I have checked the Bilsko in Strakonice and the Bilsko in Olomouc and don't find him. Manifest says he was Bohemian.
Maybe someone elso out there will pick up from here to determine which Bilsko Albert was from.
