Simply by whim, I googled the family name of Zeman. Since the last post by Jared is four
years old it seems unlikely this forum might continue. Still, my family too was rooted in
Hohemia and have relatives in the Chicago area. Years ago I did some research into our
geneology and fournd it very interesting. If I remember correctly, Zeman was derived from
Yoeman which means land owner. Though many were farmers, a new life as lumberjacks would
still relate closely to the land. In amy case it was nice to see our family name posted.
