Robert and Joyce,
I also know of some Kyncl immigrants from what is now the Czech Republic.My wife is descended from Josef and Marie Kyncl, who immigrated in 1907 and 1908 and settled in Wisconsin.We've recently found, via the new Ellis Island web site, that Josef was born (in 1872) in the small town of Svratka, which is between Prague and Brno, on the Bohemia-Moravia border.They had started their family in Susice (near the present German border), the home town of his wife Marie Muckensnabl.
We're planning to visit these towns next year, and find what records we can.
I don't know how common a name Kyncl/Kincel/Kinzel is over there.It doesn't seem to be too common here.
