Abstract
Presented review summarizes the current but still fragmented state of knowledge about the Prague Frankist families in 18th and 19th centuries and their departure to the United States of America. Namely the families of Porges von Portheim, von Hönigsberg, Wehle and Brandeis.
Several original remarks and observations of the author are added as well as the first Czech translations of the Prague Frankist religious and biographical literature.
