Hello,

I have found the Soltis surname in the village of Slovinky in Spis County Slovakia. The letter s in Slovak is pronounced like sh in English, hence the double spelling you give. You can find information about Slovinky and its families on my site at "
Itsallrelative.com". The material was gleaned from microfilms of church records held by the Family History Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. A local branch probably exists near you. I found the people at my branch very helpful.

My Great Grandfather is John Soltis (Zedo). He came to Conneticut as a pipe fitter around 1912 with his wife Helen from Slovakia (I don't know where and would like to know). Soon after immigration, they settled in Emeigh PA (now North Cambria) and had 9
children, MaryAnn, John, Steve, Helen, Mike, Kathy, Pete, Dottie and Peggy. I would love to know any Soltis information. John Soltis dies 24 years ago this year in PA (2016).

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!!
