Notes |
- Art Lang's genealogy had another child listed, Matej Blecha (1823-1903). That was not correct. That Matej Blecha moved to Iowa, but was not part of this family. For further information, search Matej Blecha born 27 Sep 1823 on this site.

BIRTH: Also shown as Born Hlince, Czechoslovakia.

Art correctly had his birth location as "Hlinec, Kralovice Plzen, Bohemia, Czechoslovakia", but I am using the actual location as on the birth record, according to Jan Zajicek.
