Surnames: HLINOVSKY HLYNOSKY HLYNOWSKY HLINOWSKI LENOWSKI Lenofsky Lenofski Lenovsky Lenovski
Some Bohemian immigrants are found in the local German language press, but I don't find any HLINOVSKY HLYNOSKY HLYNOWSKY HLINOWSKI LENOWSKI entries or references in the most current version of "Milwaukee's German Newspapers; an index of death notices and related items" (1844-1950).

Other spellings to be aware of would be Lenofsky Lenofski Lenovsky Lenovski.

The city directories may be helpful tracking the family. The earliest Bohemian Catholic church in Milwaukee was called St. John de Nepomuck; first a mission church for that community, and then had it's own bldg., a recognizable part of the old parish complex remains today at 4th & Cherry. The records were microfilmed and available at a Family History Library.
