The Elcik and Byrus Families

It would appear that Andrew and Anna Byrus came to America sometime in 1888 or 1889 from Austria. Mary Gertrude Byrus was born approximately three years later, in October 1891.

It would appear that John P. Elcik Sr. and Mary Pelcarsky came to America in 1905 or 1906 from Slovakia. The record seems to suggest that Mary arrived a year earlier than her husband.

John P. Elcik Jr. was born in January 1896.

John P. Elcik Jr. (age 22) and Mary Byrus (age 26) were married in June 1918.
