    Information from Ernest Klimek
    Ernest said his mother was Anna Shupskey and his father was John Klimek. Both born in Kleinlomnitz, Austria-Hungary. And that John Shupskey was a younger brother of Anna Shupskey Klimek. Anna Shupskey was born 1885. Anna Shupskey came to this country in 1905, age 20. She was single. Ernest said most people from "Old Country" came to Allentown, PA first, or Cleveland area. Soon after Anna arrived, she and John were married. Ernest said his mother Anna and her brother John could not speak English when they came over. His mother never did learn very well but she was better in late years.
