"I'm told there is a relationship, but I can't prove it."

John knows who his uncles are. His father is Walter Charles Dvorak born in Minneapolis to John Steve Dvorak (also born in Minneapolis). August Dvorak and all of his siblings (none of them Walter) were all born in McLeod County to IMMIGRANT Joseph Dvorak. If there's a connection it goes back to Bohemia.

Is that from the San Francisco Examiner? Do you have sources for the family information you mention?
Yes it is, and yes, several primary sources that anyone can easily find if they're looking in the proper places.
