Domincovich/Diston-Pennsylvania
« on: Sunday 06 June 21 17:55 BST (UK) »
I traced the brother of my great great grandmother (Francesca”Dominkovic” Kosić)to  Philadelphia USA.
Peter Domincovich b:May 15 1854 Viganj d: July 23 1890 Philadelphia
m: Mary Kuhn, May 16 1880 Philadelphia
Chn
Antun/Anthony H b: 1881 d: 1947
George Peter b: 1883
Mamie b: 1885 d: 1893
Margaret b: 1888

Would love to find when Peter arrived in the USA
When the wife Mary died

I have been able to trace the family of Anthony
I just discovered that George changed his name from Domincovich to Diston prior to the 1940 C
Couldn’t find his death or that of his wife Mary Lamb. He may have remarried in 1949 SATTLER.
I couldn’t trace Margaret. I found a Margaret Domincovich in a 1940 C working at Philadelphia Hospital

I hope someone can fill in some gaps.
