Dear Genners
My grandfather, Maurice PRASHKER (PRASZKIER) often played with local children in a
small village called STOOVE near Lodz. Does anyone know of this village, where it is
and what it might be called today?
Many thanks

Where is this spelling found, or is it family lore?

The Jewishgen Gazetteer finds 9 more or less probable locations within 100 miles of
Lotz/Lemberg.

Search using "Sounds Like — Daitch-Mokotoff Soundex"
and distance from "Lodz" ans selet distance order.
