    1. [PALUZERN] BIALEK, MOTZ (MAC), MOYER (MOJEK), KUHARCIK (KUCHARCZYK)
    2. My family came over from Galicia, Poland (don't know the exact city-just that in the census reports it's written as Austria-Poland) They came over in the late 1800's-early 1900's. I've been told that MOTZ was spelled MAC, MOJEK was the surname when they came over but because of how the letters looked and how the name was pronounced it was MOYER after they came over. KUCHARCZYK is the Polish spelling of KUHARCIK. BIALEK means white and Kuharcik means cook. So can you imagine if any ancestors of mine changed their names to "white" or "cook" BIALEK and KUHARCIK (both grandfathers) lived in Larksville (as far as I know) from the first time they came over here. MOTZ and MOYER (grandmothers) both lived in Edwardsville back in 1910 & 1920. Thanks for any help anyone can give me. Diane Taylor - Purrinss01@aol.com
