Bio

JAMES KRONDAK. James Krondak has won success as an agriculturist and gives his entire time and attention to the operation of his excellent farm on section 17, Douglas precinct. He was born in Austria on the 23d of May, 1877, and is a son of John and Flora Krondak, natives of Bohemia. They came to the United States in 1880 and settled in Chester precinct, Saunders county, Nebraska, where the father rented land for three years. At the end of that time he purchased eighty acres and subsequently bought more land, which he cultivated until his death on the 17th of May, 1907. He was survived for almost eight years by his wife, who died February 20, 1915. James Krondak attended the school in Prague and after putting aside his textbooks assisted his father with the work of the farm until he reached the age of twenty-four years. His father then gave him one hundred acres, which he farmed for one year and then sold. He bought the quarter section in Douglas precinct on which he still lives and as the years have passed he has gained recognition as one of the prosperous farmers and stock-raisers of the county. He raises a good grade of cattle and hogs and his well cultivated fields yield good crops of grain. Mr. Krondak was united in marriage on the 24th of May, 1904, to Miss Mary Havelka, a daughter of Frank and Mary Havelka, and they have become the parents of three children, Victor, Emma and Milo. Mr. Krondak indorses the principles of the republican party and supports its candidates at the polls. However, he has never desired public office as a reward for his fealty. Fraternally he belongs to the Modern Woodmen of America and his religious faith is that of the Roman Catholic church. For thirty-five years he has been a resident of Saunders county and he has thoroughly identified his interests with those of the county and can be counted upon to further projects seeking its advancement.
