How do you spell “Chmolumsky”

A basic error by some family researchers is to insist that their family name is spelled one way and one way only.  My own ancestors found no less than 6 ways to spell Robison….Robertson, Robison, Robinson, Robson, Robrson (4th ggrandfather’s gravestone), Roberson, Robeson…OK, that’s 7.  And there’s probably a few others that I’ve overlooked.
