Originally my great-grandfather Stefan immigrated to the United States from Czechoslovakia in 1922. Six years later he saved enough to send my great-grandmother Mary and her son John Baloga, my grandfather, to the United States to join him. My grandfather raised six children in Swoyersville. They are now spread throughout the eastern part of the U.S., though my father, David Baloga, his wife, and his three kids, including myself, remain in NEPA.

Here is a link to my great-grandfather’s obituary if you’d like to read more.

I have noticed how strikingly similar our interests are. I’m so happy we connected. (less)
