*Dennis emailed, on May 21, 2023, that Betty STASTNEY, shown as Barbara's mother above, is not correct. Betty was born a FILIP. Her parents were James Ralph "Jim" FILIP and Julia Rose SLADEK. James died in 1950 and Julia second married Jaroslav "Jerry" STASTNY (note the correct spelling of STASTNY). I would suspect that's where the alternative surname is coming from but Barbara was 18 when her mom remarried so I doubt she was adopted and if so I have found no documentation to that effect. By the way Stastny in Czech means "happy" as in Stastny Novy Rok (Happy New Year).
