Beth,
Have you ever googled the Elcik name? If you have, there are a lot more of them than you would think. Many have the same given names. Some of them lived in Lisbon Falls before moving to New York.
My theory is that we are related. I can’t prove it. I suspect that the actual connection occurred before we immigrated to America. I reached out to a John Elcik in Rocky Point, New York, and we together have been exploring the possibility. Two of my messages and several of the Life Stories I have posted are about this theory. To date, we have not been able to identify any common ancestors.
I agree about the virus. I also don’t travel much. I don’t even leave the house much. Pam is adventurous. Not me. I miss cruises.
John Elcik from Rocky Point, New York, and his relatives are in the tree. He is listed as John Elcik, NY.
This also explains my reference to DNA testing. However, this is not my DNA story. It takes longer to tell.
