Vaclav Sykora (1872) to Chicago

Classification: Query
Surnames: SYKORA, MISEK
I am looking for descendants or relatives of this family, all born in Czech Republic, probably in villages between Prague & Chrudim or Habry:
Vaclav Sykora, b. abt 1872
wife Marie, b. abt 1877
son Josef, b. abt 1899
daughter Marie, b. abt 1902

Emigrated to U.S. Oct 1905 from Tupadla, Czech Rep. (in area of Habry, Sec, Chrudim) to Chicago. They were going to an uncle living at 1076 Troy St., Chicago.

1930 census: I think this is them. James (age 58, machinist) & Marie (age 53) & daughter Winifred (age 21, b. IL). Residence: 2233 Turner Ave.

WWI draft card: Joseph James Sykora, b. Dec 1899. Nearest relative: mother Marie Sykora, 2233 Turner Ave.

There are several possibilities for the uncle Josef Misek, but he doesn't appear in the census on Troy St.

Please contact me if you have further info abt this family or the family of their uncle Josef Misek or if you are related in any way.
Thanks, Judy
