The passenger list for the ship Cumberland , which left Hamburg, Germany for America (via Glasgow, Scotland) on March 19, 1880 includes the following family (former residence Vohrazenic, Bohemia) : Franc Cermak (age 40), Katerina (36), Franc (10), Johen (8), Vaclac (4 3/4), Marie (3), and Tomas (3 months).
