These are my Grandmother, Emilie's, parents. They were born in Czechoslovakia (I think) although I'd like to research this a little better. I do have some information on them, but not much.He is Paul Ludwig Svec and she is Petrolina Houdek Losak Svec. I wonder if this was their wedding day? They are very decked out, and he has a spray of flowers on his coat lapel. Are you wondering, like I am, what happened to the left side of his handle-bar moustache?
Paul Ludwig Svec
Born: September 28, 1836
Died: October 18, 1903
Petrolina Houdek Losak Svec
Born: June 15, 1866
Died: July 21, 1941
Petronila's mom was from Austria, wasn't able to find a lot on her father becuase all of the census records list her as a step daughter to the father of the household. I think...
