Comment:  I am trying to trace George Borch born in what was Austria Hungry. He emigrated to the United States about 1900. He was married to Barbara (last name unknown).

Their children were born in the US.   Mary, Anna, George, Joseph and Margaret.  This family settled in Yonkers, NY and attended Holy Trinity RC Church which is a Slovakian

National Church.  I have not found George coming through Ellis Island, or on any of he published ship lists.  I believe George had a brother who also emigrated and settled in or

near Yonkers.  Any help would be appreciated.
