surnames SOLTIS, SHOLTIS, FALTIN, KURUC AND OTHERS
bam...@sonnets.net
I am researching SOLTIS, SHOLTIS, FALTIN, KURUC, KURUTZ, GRIGLAK and
MAZUR.
Paul Kurutz married UNKNOWN. They had 5 children-Mary, John, George,
Steve and Albert. My great-grandmother Mary Kurutz immigrated to
America around 1901. She came with her daughter, Mary Ann and son,
John Blair. She joined her husband, John Sholtis. They lived in West
Leisenring, PA. (Monarch). They had two more children, Anna and Steve.
Her brother John moved to Chicago, IL. I have no information on him
other than that Anna Sholtis went to live with him around 1915.
Anna married Martin Mazur and they had one son, Walter. He disappeared
around 1945. I am looking for more information on him. Anna is buried
at St Michael's cemetary in Lodi, NJ. I would like to find out if
Walter is also buried there.
John Blair married Anna Griglak. Mary Ann married John A. Soltis.
The Kurutz and Kuruc families were originally from Felso Lapso.
I am also researching my grandfather's family- Soltis and Faltin.
My grandfather, John A. Soltis, immigrated to America around 1913. He
was met in New York by his Uncle Valent Faltin. He came with Anton
Griglak.
I don't have a specific town name but my grandfather mentioned
Lapsanka (spelling).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I have researched the Kuruc(z) name also. The village is Lenartov and/or
Mal'cov in Saris County.
I also communicated with another fellow a few months ago who also
researched the Kuruc name just across the border in Poland. He sent me a
three page "Origin of the Kurucz Family Name - A talk with the guide at
the Niedzica Castle - Frantisek Sedlak" If you can provide me with a FAX
number, I'll send it. I can't seem to find his e-mail address at the
moment.

In regard to finding out who is buried in Lodi...call the cemetery
office...I have found the people who work in cemetery offices to be the
most pleasant and helpful people to work with. I have a copy of the deed
from my husband's parents burial plot...it told me when his grandfather was
buried and his middle initial (all useful information)...and we are looking
for his grandmother because she was not there...the nice young girl at the
cemetery sent me information on someone of the same name who died around
the same time...but with another husband....I have also called 7 cemeteries
looking for the elusive grandmother ...everyone was pleasant and
helpful...unfortunately we haven't found her yet!

Felso Lapso is now Lapsze Wyzne ("Upper Lapsze"), and is now just over the
Slovak border in Poland (a bit east of Zakopane). Lapszanka is right
nearby, also in Poland. (The capital "L"s in both names have a bar through
them in Polish.)

Hi,
at least the name Faltin is multiple in my database of the former East
Prussian (German) county of Ortelsburg.

It is Presov, Slovakia. Look on any map of Slovakia or of former
Czechoslovakia.
Soltis and Ivantso are two surnames I found in the church records of
Slovinky, Slovakia.

New info gives my Barbara (Borka) Soltesz as coming from Sedlice (could be
a village) in Slovakia. I'm told that Soltesz meant salt and the name can
be expected to be found in almost every village. Soltesz is the Hungarian
spelling of Soltes or Soltis and Ivanko is the Hungarian spelling of Evanko.
My John Evanko came from Zemplinska. I have sent for a map of Slovakia, but
have not received it yet. Any help on where these villages are?

se, but there are three villages with longer names beginning with Zemplinska
(Zemplinska Nova Ves, Zemplinska Siroka, Zemplinska Teplica) another 6
beginning Zemplinske or Zemplinsky.
The hungarian for salt is So -- it's a common last name and is pronounced
rather like my maiden name, Shaw. Soltes, or Soltys, however, is a Slovak
word meaning mayor (the word applies to mayors of small towns and villages
only, there's a different word for the mayor of a city).
Hope this helps!

Hello all, I'm not sure who really is asking for the information but just
to add on to another answer, there are the following villages located south
of Trebisov;
first is Zemplinske Hradiste, who I know some Evanyos came from. to the
south west of that is Zemplinska Nova Ves, which looks like a small area
with the three villages in the area. They are Upor, Stanca and Zemplinsky
Kiecenov. South east of that about five km south of Trebisov is Zemplinsky
Branc.
That village is between The villages where my parents came from. John Bobik
from Kozuchov 2 km north of Branc and Elizabeth Girman Bobik from Ujlak
now called Novosad 1.5 km south east of Branc. 1.5 km south east of
Novosad is Zemplinske Jastrabie. My map only covers about a 10 km square of
the area.
you might also consider looking into the name Evanyo. They are from the
area as I stated and settled originally in the Jessup, PA area before
moving to Gary, Ind. The Evanyo I am familiar with married my cousin who's
maiden name was Mary Puci. now live in Denver, Co.
Just like to confuse !!!!
