Hello Scott,

thank you for the particulars about Matej´ s accident. Our family received the information about Matej´s unhappy situation too at that time.

Referring to František Karas I have nothing to add.

I think it is a good idea to find Karel Blažek´s descendants. Karel Blažek was in the permanent contact with Matej ´s family in America, he knew about their life there a lot and we know he was in correspondence with Matej´s wife Mary. Matej did not probably have a preference for writing letters, so the news for our family were mostly sent by Karel Blažek.
