Notes:

Married:
Johan and his wife left Europe and settled in Turkey Creek Township, Saline County, Nebraska, sometime between 1875 and 1878. They purchased land from the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad Company in the N 1/2 NE 1/4 of Section 31. He received the deed to this land on March 1, 1884. The land was transferred to his son, Peter Cudly on August 3, 1901; to Peter's brother John on January 10, 1917; and to John's son, Joseph John Cudly on April 2, 1924. Robert Vnoucek, the great-great-grandson of Johan Cudly owns 40 acres of the original railroad land. (Milligan, p 255).

Notes:

Pavel and Marie Riha Buzek left Moravia in 1868--settling first in Red Oak, Iowa--and later moving to Saline County, Nebraska. Pavel filed a claim to the 80 acres of land on which they were living on October 17, 1870. He claimed the N 1/2 NE 1/4 of Section 18 in Turkey Creek Township. Here he built a home that was 12 by 16 feet wide with two doors and four windows. He also built a 12 by 40 foot stable and an eight by ten foot granary, along with a corn crib. A well of 50 feet was dug, and an acre of forest trees and several fruit trees were planted as well. His claim became final by December 10, 1877, two years after he had become a citizen. In 1882, he sold his homestead for $1100 to Frederick Weber and purchased 80 acres from the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad company, purchasing another 160 acres from them in 1886.

After Pavel's wife died, he heard of land being available in Wisconsin, on the stipulation that the land be cleared of tree stumps. He made himself a sledge hammer and moved there to stake his claim. He returned home after eight years, discouraged. He was an old man and was unable to hold claim to the land he cleared. (Milligan, p 229).

At the time of the 1900 Federal census, Paul can be found in Flambeau, Chippewa County, Wisconsin. He was a boarder in the home of Frank Caloud of Bohemia. Paul was listed as born in Bohemia in January 1824, age 76, widowed. He was shown as a naturalized citizen, immigrating in 1870.
