Hello Rich:
I understand from my father, Ray Tapajna, that you stopped by his house a few months ago and shared pictures from your trip. I saw the pictures too. Frank Tapajna, Senior was my Grandfather.
If I understand it right, your grandfather was Tom Tapajna and Grandmother was Teresa Bakos. Your mother is Pauline (Tapajna) Jerdonek, correct?
Frank Tapajna Jr., my uncle also lives in Cleveland, Ohio. I believe you know him also. My father say to talk to him as he know alot about the linage.
Someday I plan to make a trip to Slovika with stops in Ireland for my wife (she's 100% Irish). My personnal email address is
briantapajna@yahoo.com.
Now that I have yours, I'll contact you later.
