Looking for the Pernat name. I am the great-granddaughter of a Anton Pernat (Pirnat unsure of spelling). He changed his name to Pender because they kept spelling his name wrong. He and his father Anton Pernat worked in the mines there. He lived in Minn. with his family they came to Minn. from Austria. The named was changed by a man named Charlie Wegerstee who's office was over the 1st National Bank, in Meyer's location. After Helen was born Anton changed his last name because of the mix up with the name. It would look like "Peanuts" or something. His father was not happy. Do you know of the name change? Three generations back my maiden name was spelled Pernat/Pirnat. It was changed to Pender by a great grandfather. Anton Pernat (Pirnat)-Pender. They lived in Minn and worked in the mines.
