Czechs in World War

(Part 2)

   The Secretary of the State of Nebraska, Charles W. Pool, in 1925 published a roster of soldiers, sailors and marines, who had served in the Civil, Indian, Spanish-American and World Wars and were living in Nebraska at the time. This list was compiled by county and precinct assessors and is probably as complete as such a list can well be, except the names of those who had died or been killed in service, or had moved away since the close of the wars.

   No Czech names appear among those of the veterans of the Civil War, although among our pioneers there were probably a dozen or so who had taken part in that conflict. By 1925 they had all passed on. It must be remembered that Czech immigration to this country did not begin until with the late fifties and early sixties and but very few of those who lived here during the Civil War could speak or understand English.

   Among those who paid the supreme sacrifice in the World War were the following Czechs:
