John,
It makes sense and should make it easier for people to understand the different spellings. It’s interesting to me the spelling “Ilcik” on the gravestones of your great grandfather and NY John Elcik’s grandfather. I questioned at first if there was a connection, and my instinct was right.
FYI, I put the copy of your dad and Uncle Richard’s video singing the Nursery Rhyme on a flash drive and gave it to Dan Gamache yesterday. I’m hoping he can interpret the song and the other one they sang into English. I haven’t heard anything yet and will let you know when I do. I think he’s the best and possibly only hope of finding out.
Fingers crossed that I’m right,
Beth
