The papers after 1906 do provide much more information than before 1906. Did you look at the manifest? Their last residence was Steinaw(u) but their place of birth was Stanawa and Lazy. About 42 villages and towns named or having a word Lazy in the name in Poland. http://mapa.szukacz.pl 3 Stanowos in Poland too. We can also find towns named Lazy in Czech Republic. http://mapy.atlas.cz but no Stanowo or Stanovo. No W in Czech alphabet and no V in Polish. The historical region Galicia was under Austria's rule. Now this region is divided up between Poland and Ukraine. Your Lois VOGALLA shows up in SSDI. http://ssdi.rootsweb.com have you considered requesting his SS-5Form?

My grandfather is Alois. I do not know what happened to his father after 1918. I do know that his parents were divorce after 1912 that is the year his sister was born here in America. My grandfather told us two stories about the reason they changed their last name one was because the name was made fun of. The other was that they were hiding from his father after the divorce. I think it was both. I wonder if the Ellis Island manifest said that they were Polish because that was the language that they spoke. in the 1920 census it states that my grandfather and his mother were naturalized in 1909 so I will try and find that record. Was there a Steinen in Austria? Thank you Linnea Hyder

Admission: Free An intense drama set in German-occupied Czechoslovakia, the film evolves around the main hero who becomes a hired killer against his will. Sekal hates everyone and everything. Through his bitterness and cruelty, he has denounced two farmers to the Nazis and in return received their property. In their fear, the remaining farmers decide that it is necessary to kill Sekal - but no one wants the job. Director Vladimir Michalek adapted Jiri Krizan's symbolic work of Nazi occupation as it plays out in a Catholic village in Moravia. (Dir. Michalek, 1998, 110 min., Czech with English subtitles) Reservations: 202/274-9100 x. 3413 / Questions: 202/274-9105 Take care, Mary E. Fetzko Cultural Section

Jiri Levicek impresses audiences with his grasp of standard jazz music adding original elements and dabs of classical and folk motifs, accompanied by a talented drummer Kamil Slezak and bass guitarist Vlastimil Trllo. This fresh jazz trio will get you in the mood to relax and unwind. The Czech trio's repertoire is comprised largely of compositions written by Jiri Levicek himself, who graduated from the prestigious Janacek Music Academy in Brno with honors. He takes his influence from the music of multi-Grammy nominated saxophonist Bill Evans, jazz drummer Peter Erskine, and jazz pianists: McCoy (Alfred) Tyner, Keith Jarrett, Brad Mehldau, and Geri Allen.
