Joannes Pochiba-Suretek & Sophia Bubák, Nová Bystrica, Čadca, Slovakia

I am looking for the family of Joannes Pochiba-Suretek & Sophia Bubák, Nová Bystrica, ?adca, Slovakia.They are my grandfather's parents - my grandfather's name is Joseph.Joseph was born around 1895 and came to America in 1912.He settled in a small steel mill town called "Leechburg", in Pennsylvania.There were MANY other Slovak people living in Leechburg, some may have been relatives because they also were born in Nova Bystrica.Joseph's traveling companions from Nova Bystricia were:Mike Macozjak, Janos Csizusoa and Finzc Fszknick (these are the names as translated from Ellis Island).Joseph was planning on meeting a cousin in Leechburg named Janos Kolena (Joseph? - once again, Ellis Island translation of name).I have posted before, but am hoping that this bit more information may help in tracking down my Slovak family.Joseph had at least 1 sister that I have been able to find, her name was Eva and she was 1 year older than Joseph, who was born around 1894.As far as I have been able to research, Eva may have come to America for a short time with husband, but went back to Slovakia.There may have been another sister, but I haven't found that name yet through my research.I do not know Eva's married name.Any help is greatly appreciated!
