Hey Lyn,
Moravia constitutes the bigger chunk of what is now the Czech Republic. It was once an independent unit in the Holy Roman Empire. The capital of Moravia was/is Prague. Nice city.
Are you/was she by any chance from North Carolina ? Most Moravians who came to this country settled there starting in the 1750's. There's still a big Moravian presence in the Winston-Salem area, including the restored Moravian village of Old Salem. Quite a few Moravian churches, too, which are now very similar to Presbyterian in doctrine. Moravian Christmas cookies kick butt!
