Sramek genealogy

My father's father, Henry Schrammeck, was brought "as an infant" from Bohemia (now part of the Czech Republic) by his father, whose name I do not know. Henry was born 7 Feb 1852. I was told that Henry's mother died but I don't know if that happened in Bohemia or in the U.S. They settled somewhere in Wisconsin. He told my father that he remembered holding his father's hand and walking to church, Roman Catholic. Henry's father died when Henry was about 12 years old. Henry had at least one older brother. Soon after his father died, Henry left home. He stayed for a while in Edwardsville, Illinois. It is believed that while he was there a teacher persuaded him to change the spelling of his surname to Schrammeck. He drove a team of horses with a wagon train to Montana. He homesteaded in Cascade, Montana, married and raised a family of nine children. He died 7 Apr 1913
in Cascade. I have not been able to find any record of Henry Schrammeck or Henry Sramek in Wisconsin and searches of ships passenger lists have not shown a man whose name was Sramek with an infant son named Henry. Perhaps in their searching someone has found someone who fits that description. If so, please send me e-mail. I'm living in Korea at present and the internet is my only source of information. Thanks, Hope Wood
