Apatin to Saginaw - family names

Quite a few of my mother's family came from Apatin. Some worked on the Prairie Farm in St. Charles, then moved to Saginaw. Some settled in Pinconning, then on to Saginaw. My mom and I visited Germany,Austria and some of Hungary, but didn't get as far as Apatin. Areas on the rivers are beautiful. Our family names: Gerhardt, Gerschbacher, Ballingash or Palinkas, Geiser, Hussle and Seifreid. Dates vary from 1901 to abt. 1908.

Judy -- Joseph Palinkas is listed on 1910 ship's manifest as my grandparent's brother -- believe he was husband of my grandmother's sister.

Do you have any other info. on the Palinkas family that you would like to share? I found the ship record for Simon Potolski and his family. Also I found that Symon and Rosina lived at 625 Joslin, Saginaw in 1923 (check city directory). A Helen also lived there.

Palinkas/Siler/Seiler/ Family Info

I wish I had some info to give you on "Palinkas" !! I did see that name on the Apatin Church records (FHL), but at the time I was tracking my grandparents' data and their parents' and so on. Have you tried the Mormon church (FHL) records? Another avenue might be to try to DVHH website, if you haven't tried it yet. The Lookup Volunteer for Apatin provided me with info back to the 1730's on family names: Potolski, Seiler, Kurschner, Fernbach, Kretzinger, Dienst, etc. etc. B.Martin

Beth, Do you have an email address? I can send you some info on the Palinkas/Ballingash family if you would like. Do you have any more information on Rosina and Katherine Siler or is it spelled Seiler? I would be interested in finding out more about their parents, and other siblings. I have recently talked to Ginny LaBelle (about Palinkas) and sent her all the info I had to see if she can add to it. My email is: Ttiano245262MI@comcast.net Thanks, Judy Tiano

Apatin research

I would love to know who helped you in Apatin research. I have been stuck for years. My Grandfather, Adam Schweitzer, was born in Apatin in 1882. He had a brother Franz, & George, and a sister Katherine. The only other info we have on his family is that his mother's name was Teresa. Don't know his dad's first name as he always said "Pa". Only one Aunt left and she can't help as she only knows the dad as Pa. Margaret in Mesa, AZ, born and raised in Detroit. mjbuzaaz@cox.net

reply to Bill Herman

The Hussli's from Mayville were related as far as I know. I think Andrew owned a grocery store if I'm not mistaken. Unfortunately that's about all I know

Hi,my name is Matthew Palinkas.If there is any information that you would be willing to share;or that i can offer.

hallo, your familyname is writen in several diferent ways, so ballingasch, or palinkasch. the reason is simpel: your familyname is hungarian and must be prononced palinkasch (sch= sh in english), but in this multiethnic area the familynames were written in many ways. the first palinkas in apatin was Martin palinkas who settled in 1769 herbert from cologne
