January 17, 2000 This site represents many families and surnames.I have found that many of the younger ones are especially interested.It seems they get a glimpse of a larger world that they are really a part of....they get a sense of...."I really am connected"....to this what seems to be such a disjointed world. We begin with RATTAY, RATAJ, FILAKOVSKY, KUDELKA and JENNINGS.However I add information for all relatives including spouses of blood relatives.This allows our tree to be very horizontal as well as vertical. I have accumulated 915 names and over 5000 text and photo files. Some of the other surnames included are BUBAK, KURTZ, MUELLER, HERNANDEZ, CANDELARIA, BEAVERS, CRUZ, HERRING, JOHNSON, JONES, QUINN, RIGELSKY...just to name a few.Will post all the surnames later on as this site developes. If any of you want to view a particular tree or report in more detail than that which is provided on this site.....let me know and I can fax or mail it to you. What I need is information.Please send me information on your spouses including parents, grandparents etc.Include dates of birth, location etc. If you want,send your biography and I will not only post it on this site but will affix it to your Family Tree File. Love to hear from you, Matthew Andrew Rattay (Rataj, Filakovsky, Rigelsky, Kanka)
