My late Grandmother [Nana]was called Nora Mescus she told my uncle that in Lithuania Nora would be called Petrona is this correct?
Also some of her brothers and sisters were called, Peter,Vince[ could this be Vincas?,Eva, Alec could this be Aleksander? Ann I think this is Ona, Incidentally has anyone read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair about Lithuanians in the Chicago meat packing houses in the early 1900's?
