Сувалкская губерния
Anthony Chebatoris was born on May 10, 1898 in the Suwałki Governorate of the Russian Empire, a predominantly Lithuanian area which lies in modern-day Poland. His father, Michael Chebatoris ("né" Czebatorius) immigrated to the United States from Suwałki in advance of his wife Victoria and two sons in 1900; in 1902, the family settled in Treveskyn, an unincorporated area of South Fayette Township, Pennsylvania. Michael worked as a coal miner and the family eventually grew to seven children.
