This is the main page for the Kleisner Czech ancestors and cousins of Laurel and Lowell. They are related to our paternal grandfather, who was born Václav Kleisner in Ježovy in 1872. After emigrating to Chicago in 1891, he “Americanized” his name, changing the spelling to Vaclav Klaisner. Click on any of the links below to explore further.
