I am once again banging my head against the seemingly undestroyable brick wall-find Ehrl's with little information in what was Bohmen(Bohemia). I am wondering how common this surname is in the region, and how I would go about researching it-or finding someone whom I could hire to research it for me? All I know is this-my ggggrandfather was Simon Ehrl. He was born in Bohmen ( this is as specific as the information I can find gets) in 1779 to Adam and Barbro Ehrl. He went to Sweden in about 1803 as a glassblower. This leads me to believe that his father was probably a glassblower in Bohmen as well. I am at a loss as to how to proceed if it is even possible, given the limited information I have. I cannot read the language. Can anyone give me suggestions or ideas or the names of people who might be of assistance? Thank you, Linda Nelson
