Does "bohunk" include both Czech and German-speaking Bohemians and does it include Moravians as well? Thanks, Doug Moon

Hello Doug, Hunky and Bohunk: http://www.svu2000.org/conferences/09.doc I think the article suggests that only Slovaks were called Hunkies, but actually the term Hunky was used to also identify Carpatho-Rusyns|Rusniaks and Ukrainians. http://www.pifmagazine.com/SID/234/ http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Lattimer-Massacre Hunky - a new book by Nick Karas about the experience of the immigrants from the Gmina Cisna and Gmina Lutowiska areas.
