Martin, thank you. I also want to thank Lars and the kind person at Rod & Clan. Now, do you all want to take a stab at which widow married Thomas Cuka? Was it Frantisek's widow? (Or the Nobleman's widow?). It appears that I may have moved one generation further back. Jan born 1801 was the oldest ancestor in my family database until receiving this new information. Thanks again!
