Names: Our Eastern European names - were often misspelled - not our choice
English speakers - may write what they think they hear - Many of our ancestors may or may not have been literate - either way - may not know if the English version of the names is correct - Over time - the name is continued in the family - Some members of the same family - eg cousins - etc - may have a similar but not correct spelling - One needs to use Imagination - and wild guesses - when researching.
