Hi Amber,
I just found out my greatuncle Thomas Sobrak at one time spelled his name SUBJECT.He was born in MN and died in MN,born in the Duluth area.Is his name familiar to you?
He married a Clara LaJuenesse and then a Mabel Lockwood.
He had several brothers and sisters,Thomas,born in 1887,Gnesen township,St Louis County,Duluth.I have not yet heard if anyone else speeled their name this way,originally it was Sobczyk as near as I can tell.
