Sorting Perlaky information

Came across Stephen J. Perlaky's naturalization papers, in western PA (Jul 31 1919 is the date shared). His birthdate: Aug 15 1882 - born in Raba Pordain, Austria, Hungary Spouse: Etal (Ethel) - born Mar 16 1886 in Austria, Hungary. He stated he arrived in 1902, in New York, on the ship Zeeland. Appears, from information shared in his naturalization papers, he arrived first and Etal/Ethel came later as their first child, Margaret, is born April 1902 in Hungary. Their next child is born in Pittsburgh in 1912 ...

Notation: a year or so ago I came across information that Ethel Perlaky's maiden name was possibly Dorko (that's the spelling I came across). A Michael Darko, of Pittsburgh, was one of the witnesses for Steve Perlaky's naturalization. Uncertain if this was a relative from her side.

Steve/Stephen Perlaky's father used the spelling of Perlaki. A James Imre Perlaki died in 1923 in Allegheny county - where is it said his father's name was Imre (I don't have full online access to the record). There's a Janos Perlaki in Allegheny in 1906 that petitioned or got naturalization in 1906 ... there are a few Janos Perlak(i) in immigrant lists but the ones I see listed were born much after 1857.

There was an Agnes Perlak & ch(ildren) listed as to arriving in New York in Oct 1904 on the ship Slavonia - under DISPOSITION is a notation "R R to son, Istvan, in Pittsburg"(h?) There is an Istvan Parlik that arrived in New York Dec 23 1899. Worth consideration as a Stephen Joseph Parlick's first piece of paperwork, for naturalization in western PA courts .... but arrival date of 1889 - so latter may not be within the tree at all.
