Jenna Ezarik is an American internet personality.

She is the daughter of Michelle, a physical education teacher, and Steve Ezarik, a coal miner. She is the sister of internet personalities iJustine and Breanne Ezarik.

Jenna’s paternal grandfather was Stephen Joseph “Steve/Skid” Ezarik, Jr. (the son of István Tesařík, later Stephen “Steve” Ezarik, Sr., and Anna Szlota). Stephen was born in Pennsylvania. István was born in Pečovská Nová Ves, Austria-Hungary, now Slovakia, the son of János Tesařík and Mária Tutoká. Anna was also born in Pečovská Nová Ves, and was the daughter of János Szlota and Mária Kurimská. The name Szlota is possibly of Hungarian origin, as Slovakia also has people with German, Hungarian, and other ancestors. Some surnames in Slovakia follow the convention of these languages. However, it is unclear if Jenna has Hungarian ancestry.

Wilhelm was born in Germany, of Croatian, Hungarian, and German descent; he was the son of George Petrisek, who was from Croatia, and of Julianna/Julia Getto, who was born in Beremend, Hungary. Jenna’s great-grandmother Helen Derouin was the daughter of Joseph Baptist Louis Derouin/Derrouin, whose father was French-Canadian, and of Margaret Anna Moyer, who was of German, and remote English and Swiss-German, descent.

Jenna’s maternal grandfather was Fred Borsh/Borshow (the son of Ananij/Ananiy/Amany/Anany/Andy/Samuel Borsch/Borschev/Borshow and Katerina/Catherine Karlashoff/Karlashova). Fred was born in Ohio. Ananij was born in Ilask/Ilossk/Elossk, likely the city in Belarus. Katerina was Ukrainian.
