	On 15 Mar, 1921, Charles and his wife applied for passports for themselves and their children to visit Osek, Czechoslovakia. That’s where Frances’ father had lived and, apparently, that’s where Karen’s father was living. I believe they made that trip and never returned to the U.S. I can find no evidence of any of them in the U.S. after 1921. [2]
