Ignatz emigrated in 1854 as well and was the 2nd child of 16 children. No brothers or sisters are known. Ignatz was born in 1827 and was from Posen Prussia. Franz allegedly was born in 1824. It is possible, that Franz was the oldest of these 16 children, however, no evidence has been introduced to prove this as a fact. Parents of Ignatz were John Stoik and Odwick Pabch, both of Prussia. <br> <br> There also may be another lost brother, John Stoik, who was born in 1828 and emigrated also in 1854. If this is true, John would be the 3rd brother of 16 children. <br> <br> <font color="#0000c0">Notes for</font> K</font><font face="Arial" size="2">ATHARINA</font><font face="Arial" size="3"> C</font><font face="Arial" size="2">.</font><font face="Arial" size="3"> R</font><font face="Arial" size="2">AUBER</font><font face="Arial" size="3">:</font>
