Kosiancic family home page
I am researching the Kosiancic family history. We believe that our family originated from Yugoslavia. My great grand parents immigrated to the United States from Triest Austria. My great grandfather Jacob worked in the steel mills in Pensylvania. Upon hearing of the gold rush in British Columbia, they moved to the East Kootenays, where he worked in the mines. They then purchased 400 acres of land and started farming. Some of my family still resides on this land. My grandfather Valentine is believed to have been born in Europe before they came to the U.S, however, there is conflicting stories as to when he was born. This is because of his age around the time of the first world war. Any information I can obtain would be appreciated. I am also willing to pass on any information to whom ever. | Kosiancic family home page Updated September 5, 2000 |
