bullet  General Notes:

Research of Joseph J. Foster III and passed to me 1999 - Joseph Burneka entered this country thru the Port of New York in the Fall of 1909. He made his first home in Springfield, Ohio. He became a citizen of the USA on 19 Nov 1943 in Springfield, OHIO.
Per Ruth Burneka Foster: My father was one of several children born to a well to do farmer in Lithuania. When his father died his mother was unable to keep the farm going and had to sell it."
Ruth's grandfather fled Lithuania to avoid being impressed into the Russian Armay. Once he was settled in the USA he brought his younger brother Frank, a sister Mary and another brother (name unknown) to the USA. Frank returned to Lithuania before WWII. Frank had fought with the US Army in WWI in FRance and had one or two fingers shot away.
