my grandmother immigrated from Brezi in 1880 or 1881 along with my grandfather who was from Hvozdany or kydov which are a few miles from Brezi. They immigrated to Cleveland Ohio. His name was Josef Mulacek and hers was Marie Cejka. Be carefull because there are more than one Brezi in the Czech republic but this one is the colsest to Pisek.

Hi Robert! Have you tried searching for each towns website? Many cz towns have them now, though I dont expect you will find them in english. Try Wikipedia online or try a search at the Cz govt site .. www.czech.cz I would Google too, if you have not already done so. There are books published in CZ about all the town histories, but I have not seen one in English. Try the Czech Center in NYC, NY or others, maybe they have this book. There are booksellers online from Czech too. Maybe you could get a copy of a page and then get the page translated. Good Luck, Mike in MS
