Death Records Now

I am working on my family tree and I feel like I’ve hit a dead end with one pair of my great-great grandparents.

Their names were Nicholas Hoffman (I’m sure about that) and Christina Kovasavich (I’m not 100% sure about the first name).

I found this record on the California death index that I know to be correct:
Last: HOFFMAN
First: NICHOLAS
Gender: MALE
Birth Date: 06/03/1870
Death Date: 03/07/1961
Birth Place: WISCONSIN
Death Place (County): LOS ANGELES

They had a daughter named Angela Hoffman, who married Lloyd Franklin Saunders (whose ancestry is much easier to find).

I’ve looked everywhere–just can’t seem to find Nicholas Hoffman or a Christina Kovasavich. If you can help me out, I will greatly appreciate it!

Mainly trying to find out who her father is. 1880 census in Ness Co., KS lists both her parents b. in PA.

What do I know is she married John Stephens bef.1850 probably in PA (RootswebWC shows IA) but they’re listed in Beaver, Clarion Co. PA as married in 1850. They had 9 children in Benton Co. and Dallas Co, IA. from 1851-1873, then moved to Ness Co., KS btwn. 1873.-1880. John in Ness Co. listed as widowed.in 1885 census.

Can anyone find her birth, marriage or death record – or something that shows her father’s name or mother’s maiden name?

Thank you very much in advance – I appreciate all efforts in trying.
Hmmm no answers. Any suggestions on where I could find this information?

Kay,

I believe I located an online tree w/ her on it. Unfortunately, it does not mention her parents. But, if you are not familiar w/ this tree, you might want to contact the person who posted it and see if he knows of someone who might have further information. You can see this tree w/o a subscription to ancestry.com
