An ALL site for research in Slovakia/Slovak Republic:
www.iabsi.com/gen/public
You need to locate a precise place of birth of your ancestors in (present) Slovakia.
SK's phone book: www.zoznamst.sk listing SIKORA, SYKORA, BOZOK, BATIK, ESTOK, SIMO and KUZMA.
Some of the surnames in your query are in their Americanized version and some in Hungarian spelling.
Up to 1918 the records would say Hungary but language spoken Slovak. Your ancestor Steve would have come thru a port as Istvan and Mary as Maria.

My name Natalie and I'm from Alabama. I was trying to find out information on my family and when I seen this message I got really happy to see my great grandfather name on here. Because I really don't know much about my grandfather side of the family and where they come so can you help me? My great grandfather is John Sikora and his youngest son is Frank Sikora which is my grandfather. Any information will help

Was it your great grandfather that came to America? Do you know when?
Take a look in www.ellisislandrecords.org Look for Janos SZIKORA; Jan SYKORA;
