Surname: Viktor...?
My grandfather, Josef Viktor, immigrated here in 1909. His future wife asked him to change his name before she married him. He must have changed it before he left since a school report card shows him as "Viktor." I remember my dad saying the name used to be Viktoria? Does anyone have any knowledge about this surname?
Also, the school report card is below. I do not see an address for Josef or the school. Would anyone have any idea of where it would be? Thank you for your help.

Prague. "V Praze" means "in Prague".

Here is a closeup of the seal. It definitely says V Praze. Thank you, Betseylee. I will look at the article later today.

You are welcome. The document is a grade report proving the completion of a three-year study at a technical school.
