Hello,
My Great Grandfather (Joseph Vida) was born in the same region about 1872, and he died in Bayonne, New Jersey in 1926. He had family in Pennsylvania, and other parts of New Jersey. He was married to a Maria, then after her death he married an Anna. Anna and Maria were sisters and their maiden name was Yurasek. The surname Kollar also has to do with this family. I have been told that Joseph's father was named George, but do not have documentation on that. I also know the name was changed from the original spelling, and the some family changed it differently or not at all. It originally was with a W. Think there's a connection?
