I'm looking for any information on my family who were from Udraz, Czech Republic. My ancestors' names were Frantisek Beránek (b. 1858), Rosalie Skala Beránek (b. 1860), and their parents' names were Jan & Kateriny Beránek and Josef & Marie Skala. Any info on any of these people, their descendants, or people of their surnames still living in the Cz.Rep. would be greatly appreciated!

Velice vám děkuji, Luděk! I don't know much in Czech, but I know that means thank you very much! I was in the process of looking through the archives but I hadn't found the records you showed me yet! You have saved me a lot of time! I appreciate your efforts very much!

Thank you so much again,
Jacob Thomas Beránek
