Sotak name in LDS records in/near Cemerne

Classification: Query
Surnames: Sotak Hritz
My great-grandfather Michael Sotak came from Cemerne. His daughter (Mary - My grandmother) and his son Peter were both born there according to US Naturalization records. According to a distant cousin Michael and his second wife are buried in Cemerne (she has been to the cemetery and has pictures somewhere). I've gone through the LDS microfilm for Cemerne 1792020 and 1792039. I can find relatives on the other side of the family (Hritz, Hricr)in these films, so I know that they are the right Cemerne (apparently there were 2 cities with the same name at one time).

I have several questions. Has anybody been able to find the Sotak name in the LDS films near Cemerne? If so, which one. I've tried looking under a variety of names including Szotak, Zsotac, etc. Is there a different spelling that I need to look for?

Also, I believe that a census was done in 1868 or 1869. How do I find information about that census.

Any Help is appreciated
