  • I am looking for my Grandfather's family

    My maiden name is Kotora.  I have found that my grandfather came from Czechoslovakia, that he joined the military in the US.  I never got to talk to him when I was younger, I just never thought to ask him anything.  Now that I am older I wish I would have.

  • House number maps - 1890's

    Anyone know if it is possible to locate town maps with the house numbers on them? I'm looking at LDS film for marriages in Stupava, Slovakia for the 1800's. Sometimes the house number is listed. I made the dumb assumption that houses would be in sequence. But the FHC volunteer said no. House…
