Cheri- I am interested in the surname Zajicek. I have Joseph A. Zajicek born on Mar. 18, 1863 in Bohemia, and who came to Chicago. His wife, Josephine Kremel, (m: 1887 in Chicago) was from Radinicich, but I'm not sure where Joseph was from. I only have additional information about his descendants. I know this isn't much to go on, but in case you have any links could you let me know? Thanks, Liz Riemer -- SEM Lab, Inc.
