Let's face it -- there aren't a whole lot of us. Here's were I try to estimate the number and the distribution around the USA and the rest of the world.
I figure there are about 3,000 families in America with HL's in their names, comprising about 25,000 to 35,000 people. So, there's not a whole lot of us. Here's some interesting information on our numbers: Two Hlavac's in Louisiana -- me and some guy named Mike up near Baton Rouge. 34 Hlavac's that I found on ICQ 257 Hlavac's on an old Anywho.com directory 24 Hlavac's found in a Yahoo search Nearly 100 HL names foud at switchboard.com One genealogy website I went to recently said that Hlavac is the 56,500th some odd most common name in America. I'll be adding more info as to our Hlow Numbers as I go search the internet for us. Every time I'm in another city I try to check out a phone book to see how many HL names there are listed. At most I find just two or three. But often there are none. And it's not until you get to certain cities that the numbers begin to increase. I guess one of my goals is to contact every single HL in the nation. It's an odd goal, but hey, at least it keeps me out of trouble. |
