Klokot

It's 5 o'clock and I'm taking a break from errands and all that work stuff before I go play a tennis match at 6:00.  I've been talking to Dad about deciphering the names on the Marie Pazourek entry.  He said he can sometimes recognize names, even though he can't read every letter, because many of the people in Crete, Nebraska had the same names.  He also suggested looking at the old maps we found on the Internet; sometimes the towns are called "extinct"in the records. One map in particular is a historic and beautfully drawn map of the Czech Republic that would make a great game board. I was scrolling around on it in the Drazice and Tabor area and found "Klokot"!  That 's the word I was looking for! That's definitely where Matej, Marie's father, lived with his parents before Drazitz, or Drazice.   I suspected the word started with a K, because it looked the same as the first letter in "Katerina".  It will be interesting to see if it is still on the current maps.
