Dorothy Janousek was born April 7, 1930, on the family farm in Colfax County, Nebraska, to John and Barbara (Vesely) Pickhinke. She was baptized and confirmed at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church in Howells. Dorothy attended District 50 Grade School and graduated from Howells High School in 1949. On August 16, 1951, Dorothy was united in marriage to Ladislav “Lad” Janousek at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church. They moved to a farm south of Clarkson where they farmed until retirement and moved into Clarkson in the mid 1990’s. While living on the farm, Dorothy was Lad’s “right hand man”. She worked the farm with Lad, had a large garden, did a lot of canning, enjoyed yard work, baking, and raised numerous breeds of dogs. Dorothy always had animals to take care of, even in her later years, even though it may have only been a fish tank. In 1969, Lad and Dorothy built a large chicken barn where they had 20,000 laying hens. They would collect up to 45 cases of eggs a day. Dorothy and Lad were members of Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Heun until they joined SS Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church in 1963.
