Husband of Mary Kastl. Frank Slegel, a native of Jackson County, Wisconsin, was born November 23, 1874, a son of Carl and Barbara Kocum Slegel. The parents were born in Bohemia and came to America in 1867, taking up their residence in Wisconsin. In 1880 the family arrived in Crawford County, Iowa, and located on a farm in Milford Township, where Mr. Slegel successfully engaged in agriculture and stock-raising. Frank Slegel came to Crawford County with his parents in his early boyhood and received the advantages of education in the public schools. He assisted his father in work upon the home farm until arriving at manhood and then began in business upon his own account by purchasing a place of one hundred and sixty acres on section 17, Westside township. On February 3, 1903, Frank was united in marriage with Mary Kastl, and they settled on this farm until 1915 when they retired and moved to Vail, where Frank managed the Vail Lumber Yard until 1946. He also served on as town treasurer and school board treasurer, until poor health caused him to retire about a month before his death. He died on May 23, 1949 at St. Anthony’s Hospital in Carroll. Funeral services were held at St. Ann’s Church with Rev. Fr. D. L. Clark, officiating. Burial was at St. Ann’s Cemetery in Vail.
