Bob, My mother and a lot of her cousins left Landskron in 1946. I have some things I can share, if you are interested. For example, our relatives owned a popular restuarant, I have a copy of the big handwritten book of recipes that they used for a lot of the traditional dishes. I also have a lot of old photographs, these are personal items, not historical documents, so you may not be interested. I have been told that Landskron is considered Moravia, so I am not sure if this would work for you.

Over the years many of you, particularly Aida Kraus and Karen Hobbs, have submitted articles for the Newsletter. Aida and Karen have been godsends for us with many, many fine submissions! I have been amazed at the number of you that have indicated that you once lived in the "homeland". We, so much, would like to hear your stories of life there!! Those of you who are first or second generation descendants of German-Bohemian immigrants, I am sure, you have stories from you parents and grandparents about life in the "old country" or about their experiences coming to the U.S. We would also like to hear your stories!!

Mary, Of course I am interested. Many Landsknoners immigrated to the Watertown Wisconsin area in the 1850's. Thank you so much for your willingness to share your treasures with us.

Mary, It would be a great story if we could learn about your family's life in Landskron before, during and after the war and how they adjusted to life in the U.S.. A story about the restaurant with photos and copies from the recipe book would be a great addition. Would you be able to put something together for us… Much appreciated!!
