| Zlatica : Re: Ambra surname | Hi
The maiden name seems like it might be Matuc'ek but MATUS'EK is the surname that shows up in Velke Levare's phone book.
The surname AMBRA lists in the same region as you Alena ancestor.

Our first ancestors, if married in the old country, the villages would be about 10 miles radius. Sometimes even in the "new country" they would marry from their general area in the old country.

97 AMBRAs, 30 ALENAs and 120 MATUSEKs passed thru Ellis Island. To locate all the people that came thru EI from a certain village use One Step : www.stevemorse.org
There is a Julia AMBRA on EI site that passed thru in 1911. She left a father (R)(J)ohan Ambra in Gross-Schutzen which is a German name for Velke Levare.
