Dear Peter...
I just now looked back to this forum, and realized I had messages. Yes, my son and I did visit in August, 2003. I was very happy to visit the village of Hokovce, but we did not come across anyone who spoke English. We were able to walk around the village, the cemetery and we walked to Ducince, where my Grandfather worked on week-ends. It was a dream come true for me to experience that little bit of the past. Unfortuneately I do not know any other information...I do know that my grandparents left family in Hokovce, so I could very well have relatives still in the area. Thank you so much for giving me a little bit of the history of the area...I will keep watching the site to see if any other replies come. Thank you again.
