  1. 10.  Jan "John" Kasak was born about 1826 in Pisek, Bohemia; died on 5 Mar 1878 in Nebraska; was buried in Kasak Cemetery, Fillmore County, Nebraska.

    Notes:

    The son of Jacob KASAK and Katherine KALNY. He came to Milligan around 1870, with his two children, John and Barbara. There is no proof his wife came with them. If she died here, she would have been buried in the Kasak cemetery that has no markers. He homesteaded the E 1/2 SW 1/4 of Section 30 in Turkey Creek Township of Saline County. This tract of land was sold to his daughter, Barbara KOLAR, after his death. He filed a second homestead, the W 1/2 SW 1/4 of Section 30 in Turkey Creek Township, and contracted as well for the E 1/2 SW 1/4 of Liberty Township in Fillmore County. His son, John Jr., took over this land after his father's death. He eventually gave the land to his son, Peter KASAK. His obituary states he dropped dead about three-quarters of a mile from his home when he started out for cattle. (Milligan, p 323).

    Jan married Marie Simacek between 1850 and 1858. Marie (daughter of Matej "Mike" Simacek, Sr. and Marie ???) was born before 1829 in Bohemia; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 11.  Marie Simacek was born before 1829 in Bohemia (daughter of Matej "Mike" Simacek, Sr. and Marie ???); and died.

    Notes:

    She may have died either in Bohemia, or soon after they arrived in Nebraska.

    The Milligan Centennial book listed her date of birth as January 28, 1840. This does not appear to be correct, as her son John Kasak, Jr. born in 1850.

    It is noted that the birthdates shown for Jan Kasak's first and second wife, Marie Simacek and Alzbeta "Elizabeth" Cizek, as shown in the Milligan Centennial book, are IDENTICAL. This appears to be in error.

    Children:
    1. Jan "John" Kasak, Jr. was born on 21 Jun 1849 in Tichovice, Bohemia; died on 1 Dec 1928 in Wilber, Saline County, Nebraska; was buried in Bohemian National Cemetery (Milligan South), Milligan, Fillmore County, Nebraska.

  3. 12.  Matej "Mike" Simacek, Sr. was born before 1820; died in Fillmore County, Nebraska; was buried in Kasak Cemetery, Fillmore County, Nebraska.

    Notes:

    Mike and Mary Simacek came by boat to the United States from their native land of Bohemia in June of 1886, docking in Baltimore, Maryland. From there, they took a train to Nebraska and on the the home of their daughter, Mrs. John KASAK, northeast of Milligan, living near there the rest of their lives. They had two children, Mike, Jr. born in 1846, who married Mary POLAK and a daughter, Marie Simacek, born January 28, 1840 [note this dates is thought to be erroneous], married John A. KASAK, Sr. Mike and his wife Marie are presumed to be buried in unmarked graves in the Kasak Cemetery. (Milligan, p. 481).
