Married: to Annie Marie Skybarove, from Slovakia in 1862 in Moravia. He was a farmer, she was a homemaker. Jiriho and Annie had only one son that I have found records for in our Mazac Family Reunion Notebook, 1995.

I do not know if there were any other children or not. The notebook was written in by several of our Moravian relatives. This notebook is a compilation of entries by many of the old timers. I do not have a record of their names.
