Researching: GASCHLER, TANZER, FRIEDL
I have traced my family back to Winterberg, Austria (now Vimperk, Czech Republic) to Engelbert Gaschler (1836) his father was Johann Gaschler married to Karoline Tanzer of Oberfrauenau, Bavaria. I can not find birth or marriage documents for Johann . this is where I have hit a brick wall. Engelbert married Franziska Friedl in Lambach, Bavaria in 1860 and had my Great Grand Father, Wilhelm Gaschler 1867. Wilhelm came to the US in 1891 as did at least two of his brothers, Engelbert and Alois. They settled in Cumberland MD. Any tips on how to research Czech Archives for Johann Gaschler?

Researching: CIHLAR, CYHLAR
Cihlar - 1720-1860 - Mnich or Boretin, Bohemia. Seek ancestors and or contemporaries of Matous Cihlar (Cyhlar) who lived in Mnich of Boretin, Bohemia, during the 18th Century. Matous emigrated to Chicago in 1861. I know nothing of these towns. What was the population then and what is it today? What was/is the economic basis for the area? Any outstanding geographic features? Genealogy research has helped me to identify ancestors, but I'd like to put some flesh on the bones. Matthew was a master tailor in his new Chicago, IL, home. What value was there to such service in 1850 Mnich? He had eight children. Was such a large family common in a village?

Current family are in the Waco and Dallas, Texas areas. I have received some email from northern Germany, where some families apparently emigrated.

Czech name Serek or Sherek from the village of Vostravici. I am looking for information on the family of Martin Sherek or Serek. He was born 11/11/1858 in Vostravici and married Aneska Kalus of the same village. They came to America, with their first son John, from Frydek Mystek to central Texas through Galveston in 1889. We know nothing of Martin, even if he had brothers or sisters left in Czech. We know very little about Aneska's family. She spoke of a sister who was blind and a brother who was killed in the army. Sherek is not a common name, so any information you may have will be appreciated. Searching for Tepera from the village of Bilany. I am looking for information on the name "Tepera". Josef Tepera was born in Bilany near Kromeriz in Czech. He came to America twice, once in the late 1800's and again with his family in 1900. He immigrated to central Texas through Galveston. There is an "Anna Tepera" buried at Svaty Hostyn but we are unable to get any information on her. She was born 1874 and died 1933. As far as I know, all the "Tepera's" in the USA can be traced back to Josef Tepera. Maybe there was a spelling change at immigration? There are very few "Tepera's" in the Czech Republic and we are unable to make a direct connection the their family line. The Tepera's in Prague think the name may have a "Finnish" origin. Does anyone know anything about this name? Or have any thoughts?

Researching: MUSULIN
I'm looking for the Musulin family. The latest I can go back is around 1910 when "Bob" Musulin came to America. His given name is "Bloosh" (sic). His wifes name was Nora. They had three sons that lived in California. I know that's no help, but I hope it's a start.
