Dear Jiri What a novel idea - contact the source (I hope you know I am poking fun at myself). Since English is my only language I always hesitate to write to others when I don't know if we will be able to communicate. After doing my family research for about 6 years now, I should know better and just give it a try. I did write to Blanka Vetrovcova and within a very short time today I had a response. So thank you so much for urging me on to do what I should have done to begin with. In case anyone else might see a familier name on Blanka's website, she stated these are names of couples who were married in Trest and surrounding villages between 1780 & 1827. Thank you again.

Jiri Mlejnek http://rodokmen.psinec.com/matriky/oddani/trest_oddani_1780-1827.htm I am researching the surname Praschinger/Prashinger/Prassinger/Prasinger. My 3rd great grandfather Mathaeus Proschinger married in Csatalja, Hungary in 1811. On that church marriage entry it stated he was from Moravia. The priest in Csatalja spelled the last name always with an "o" rather than "a" and it seems the "a" wasn't used until the family had moved to Bereg, Hungary. While doing a google search a couple of days ago I came across the above link with my family surname listed. Since I have been searching for their origin in Moravia I am wondering if this could be a possible clue as Triesch/Trest was part of Moravia and now part of the Czech Republic. I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to give me a clue as to what this web page is talking about. I tried putting the page into Babylon but it said it couldn't translate it. Thank you so much for any help you might be able to give.
