Hi Listers,
This is my Great Uncle who was born in Sonman, Portage and lived there with the Blahut family until about 1919.

I thought I'd post it so that it will go into the List's archives.

So far in 7 years I have had Zero luck hooking up with anyone else researching this family in Cambria County. I find them on the 1910 census, and it appears that they came over from Austria/Poland in 1903.

I'll show what I have on the family in another post.

Thanks,
Kat in VA
