Looking for information on the parents and siblings of
Julius Malefcheck
Born 14-Apr-1844 Poland/Prussia/Bohemia/German
Married 8-Jul-1973 Chikasaw County, Iowa (Frances Lensing)
Died 4-oct-1927

I have come to believe that he was Bohemian (Czech).

The first records of any kind that I can find for him is a marriage record in Chikasaw County, Iowa. The township in Iowa where he seems to have originated was populated by a large Bohemian community.

Shortly after his marriage, he moved to a farm in Trempealeau county Wisconsin. Which put him right in the middle of one of the larges Norwegian Settlements in the US.

He is a total mystery .....

Can anyone provide some assistant with this family name?

You might want to throw a wider net and post on Bohemia and Czech Republic board.

You have not been able to locate his arrival manifest? No place of birth in the church marriage record or children's baptismal record?

The spelling MALEFCHECK is so so, not sure if Americanized or Germanized or just written as it sounded to the clerk taking the information.
