Jacob JANDA 1846 (Bohemia)Czech Republic, 1886 Allegheny, Pittsburgh, PA {USA}
Maria Bastyr abt 1854 (If she was married before him I have not found this) She did marry after his death in 1889. Hamilton county, Stubenville, OH, {USA} She married Joseph Repple 10-29-1889.
I believe that my GG grandfather's name was also Jacob JANDA b abt 1825.

noggin on 2014-02-15 06:50:19According to the 1881 census Iknac Veyenstek was Jacob Janda's brother in law which would suggest Maria Bastyr was previously married or Maria's mother remarried between having maria and Iknac.
Also according to the 1880 census Jacob was a stonecutter. This looks like his entery into the USA. According to the passenger list he arrived alone.

JandaFamily on 2014-02-15 07:58:05Thank you, I have Jacob Janda coming in 1869, and where he was till his death. 1869-1886. But nothing before 1869 in Bohemia.
No known siblings? His father abt 1825 was supposed to of been here in the USA.
I have all his children's names. Maria Bastyr I know that they got married in Lawrenceville. 1873. In the 1880 census I found them under LANDA. Only son Joseph Martin was living then. 1875-1920. We felt that the Ignac was a brother-in-law but possibly married to a sister. But find nothing on that either.

Jacob Peter Janda arrived 1869 Steamship Baltimore.
Jacob 1870 1 Main A Pittsburgh, PA
Married Anna Larva Set 1872 she died after childbirth 1873
Son Jacob Joseph (JACK) Janda 1873-1873 lived 6 months.
Remarried Maria BASTYR 1873 Lawrenceville
They had five children.
Jacob died 10-29-1886 Allegheny Pittsburgh, PA.
Maria Bastyr remarried a Joseph Reppel 1889, Stubenville, OH.
Then the trail goes cold.
Am interested in any of the siblings of Maria or Jacob. Because I believed they hold the key to the children.
My Grand father is John Gilbert JANDA (YANDA) 7-10-1882.
My father is Edward Gilbert YANDA 10-29-1914.
