Dear Joy,
Our grandparents were Stephen and Catherine (Benya) Vavrek, born in Zavadka, Slovakia, and died in
Witt, Illinois. She had a cousin (?) named John Benya, who lived on a farm on the Illinois River near Ottawa, Illinois. John had 3 children, 2 girls and a boy. I think the boys name was Mike. Many relatives moved from Witt to Cicero and Berwyn, Illinois. Many Vavreks in the Witt cemetery. I dont recall any Benya gravestones, but its been a while since we've visited.
