My great grandmother was Francheska Pivonka. She was born in Mehrns, Austria and lived in Frehlsburg, Colrado County, Texas.

Was your great grandmother's maiden name or married name Pivonka? I have 2 Francis Pivonka's (maiden name) in my database one born 1882 one in 1843. The majority of the Pivonka/Piwonka information I have is of people located in the Colorado County Area.

While searching for Piwonka on the web I came across your site. I live in Matagorda County, Blessing, whese there are a number of Piwonka's. What is the difference in Piw and Piv in the name?

Like a lot of imigrants, they changed their spellings to a more American version. My great grandmother was Mary Pivonka who married Frank John Moravek and that name was originally Piwonka. My Pivonkas lived in Lyons, Texas.

Yes, this is my family. Mary Pivonka & Frank John Moravek were my great grandparents. Bessie Moravek & John H. Peters were my grandparents.
I'll see which dates I have.
I have a picture of Mary Pivonka & Frank Moravek, with some of her brothers & sisters probably from the early 1900's. Two of the ladies look much like her. I would really like to have them identified if someone has pictures from this part of the Pivonka family that might be labeled.
