Shirley... that would be great! Phone # and addresses. I'm trying to find out what my Grandfather's brother's name was in order to see if these Lisac's are relatives. My brother tells me that prior to the 1930 census, our family name was spelled LISEC. I suspect that when they came over it was probably changed then. I'm also not sure where they entered the US from (Ellis Island??) or even when - any hints on how I can find that out??

Thanks for the info and the help!
