| Anton Lisko and Mary Fisher traveled separately to America. The reason, Anton had an eye infection and could not board as scheduled. So, Mary traveled alone with infant, Isadore Vincent Lisko, born 15 October 1905, and Anton followed and arrived in America, Ellis Island, seven days later than Mary & Isadore.
The story goes that a young man traveled with Mary Lisko and infant, Isadore. He had lost his family. Pontele Soloneck volunteered to take care of Mary and child after Anton was denied travel. Pontele was younger than Mary and may have claimed to be her husband so they could travel as husband and wife. So far, we have been unable to see that connection in ship manifests. Anna Kolar (mother of Mary Fisher), her second husband, Tom Michaelenko and their daughter, Mary Michaelenko, arrived in America, Ellis Island, on 14 November 1907. Anna Fisher (sister of Mary Fisher) & Frank Tuhy emigrated to America in April 1898. We have no record yet. Vincent Fisher (brother of Mary Fisher) emigrated to America. The arrival date is believed to be 14 December 1905, on the Masson Holland, through Rotterdam. We have been unable to locate this record. Joe Lisko is believed to have been a brother of Anton Lisko. We believe Joe also came to America but have no record of that. Anton and Joe lost contact on coming to America. |
