My gr. grandparents were Frank and Barbara Alberowsky. The half brother was 
named Wencel. Also My grandfather was the second child Wencel #131. They all settled 
in Iowa City, IA, where they lived till their deaths.  My grandfathers bohemian 
name was Vaclav Wencel and was known by James.  The name Alberowsky was changed to 
Alberhasky at the turn of the 20th century. James Alberhasky
