WILLIAM AND ELIZABETH [AHLE] DVORAK

William and Elizabeth (Ahle) Dvorak lived in Madison, Nebraska, until November of 1917 when they and Bernadine moved to the Joe Liska farm in the Sparta vicinity. In living Constance was born. Then they moved to the Buron farm close to Verdigre. From there they moved to the Kirk farm five miles west of Winnetoon and Robert was born there in living. Then they moved to the farm known as the Frank Sladek place in the Venus area. In 1929 the Dvorak family moved on the Joe Jaros farm and then to the Charlie Houzvicka place where Cleta was born in living. The family then moved to the Frank Drobny place, and the last move in 1938 was to the place they call “home,” which William bought. Elizabeth, 92, still lives on the place. Robert has taken over the farming.
