The surnames I'm searching info for:
Grzymala (aka Gimala), Sokolowski, Hereda, Yorkov all with roots in Poland or Polish Austria before coming to America in the early 1900's.
Sokolowski's settles in the Natrona & New Kensington areas of WesternPA. Some settled in Chicago building and selling furniture. Others then moved to Weirton, WVA. A nephew with the last name of Balinski was sponsored to come to America. After a while, he married and moved to the Chicago, IL area. He was a cake decorator.
The Hereda's lived in White Glen, W. VA; Clarksville, PA; New Kensington, PA; & Kinloch, PA. Two Hereda brothers came to America. One settled in the Arnold, PA. The other settled in nearby New Kensington, PA.
My husband's family: Jenkins and Minton from Wales; Knox (Scotch/Irish) who lived in Homer City/Indiana area of Western PA. Heubert who lived in the North side of Pittsburgh, PA, then called Allegheny City; and Cheswick, PA.
