SCHWABIK

The Family Tree

POSSIBLE CONNECTIONS

Sometimes when searching for ancestors or possible relatives, you find people that might be related to you, but there is no documented connection. We have found some Schwabiks that may or may not be related to us- here is some information on them.

Aurel Schwabik and Josefine Pischinger from Bohemia, lived in Austria. They had three children, Marian, Aurel and Josefine. Both Marian and Aurel were photographers, Josefine is a painter.  We have made several attempts to talk with Josefine, but unfortunately, she does not want to speak with us. We have  not found any connection to this family - yet!

These photos come from a book "Die Tiroler Kunstlerin - Josefine Schwabik" which features her paintings. Many of us feel there is a connection to this family, as our family has many photographers and painters - sometimes an artistic 'streak' runs through the family tree!

Vernon R. Kostohryz has several Schwabik surnames in his family tree. We have not been able to trace any of them back to us yet, and we have been in touch with Vernon over the years. His very detailed website can be reached at:
