Researching: KLAMO
My father was Vincent Jerome Klamo born in Middletown, Ohio in 1910 and died in South Daytona, Florida in March 1998. His father was Steven Klamo and came to America in about 1904. His father was Paul Klamo and lived in Tresporska, Austria-Hungary. I do not know where this is located today as the country has been divided several times since then. I would like very much to find out information on my ancestors and location as I am coming to Vienna and Prague in May and would like to visit some of these sites. Please let me know of any information found.

Researching: FEJKO
I see that you have Fayko, and Feyko in the listing. Why not Fejko? I understand that is the correct spelling of my grandfather and his 4 brothers' name when they arrived in this country in the early 20th century. That is the spelling that I adopted when I learned this. They had been assigned fayko because the officials thought the j inappropriate for the proper pronunciation. Check out my website - fejko.com.
