Biography
The Tust surname, also spelled Thust and Taust, was of German origin. According to a close family member, Edmund Tust stated that the name was longer in length before it was changed to Tust. I have not yet determined what that name was. They were Germans living in a Polish settlement. Edmund Tust was born in Zdunska Wola, Poland on 13 February 1891 to Edward Karl Thust and Amalia Julianna Hoppe. Amalia died 17 Mar 1917 in, Kalisz, Poland. She was found buried with her daughter Emma. Edward Karl died in 1951 in Islip, New York, USA. Edward and his sons were weavers. Zdunska Wola was known to be highly productive in the manufacturing of textiles. Edmund immigrated to Allentown, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, USA, arriving at Ellis Island on 1 June 1913 . Edward Karl, his two other sons Arnold and Adolf and his daughters Irene and Olga arrived on November 1922. Edmund married Rosina Mulczet from Kleinmurbisch, Austria. They both lived in Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States for the remainder of their lives.

The development of the village is closely linked with the rapid influx of Silesian weavers and textile workers. In 1817, with the contribution and effort of Stefan Z?otnicki, the village flourished and became populated with migrants from Silesia, Germany and Bohemia.
