Notes - BIRTH-PLACE: The birthplace of the Frank was probably in or near Bytom Poland. Frank's Declaration of Intention describes his birth and last foreign residence as Freikorten (Frei Korten ?), Germany. But towns with these names have not been located in Silesia (Schlesien in German). The Hamburg Passenger List has his residence as Reuthen, Schlesien. A town by the name of Reuthen has not been located in Silesia. Frank's Death Certificate states that Frank's father John was born in Bytom Poland. The Polish town of Bytom in Silesia is called Beuthen in German. Bytom is also near several mines including silver, lead, copper, and coal. With the family legend of Frank being a miner and the similarity between the German name of Beuthen (for Bytom) and Reuthen, the evidence seems to indicate that the birthplace of Frank was in or around Bytom Poland.
BIOGRAPHY: At the 1994 Pawlik reunion, Joy Hahn of Cuero TX and Elsie Deloris Allen of Tyler TX told the story that Frank Pawlik was a miner (Coal?) before coming to Texas. Elsie also stated that the family lived near the border. First the family was required to give up their guns to German solders. Later they were forced to speak only German instead of Polish. Upon this restriction, Mary stated it was time for the family to leave. The Hamburg Passenger Lists state that Frank, Maria, Teofel, and Gertrude left Hamburg Germany for New York on 25 Sep 1890 on the vessel "Columbia". The family arrived in the port of Galveston on or about 15 Nov 1890. According to Sylvia Hadamek and the HISTORY OF THE PEOPLE OF LIVE OAK COUNTY TEXAS, Frank and his family settled first in Panna Maria, TX and latter in Cuero, TX. Cuero was largely German at the time. Frank rarely went to town, letting his wife Mary do the shopping since she could speak both English and German. In 1919, Frank moved with his five yonger children to Block A, near George West, Live Oak Co., TX in 1919 to farm 337 acres. Frank's Declaration of Intention (Naturalization) Record describes him as having fair complexion, height of 5 feet 6 inches, weight 120 pounds, grey hair (he was 66 years old at the time), and blue eyes.
PLACE: Beuthen, Kreise Beuthen, County Oppeln, State Silesia, Prussia is now Bytom, State Katowice, Poland.
