Fred Dunder, of Prague, whose garage business is constantly growing, necessitating an addition to the already commodious building, was born November 12, 1874, upon a farm near Crete, this state. His parents, John and Anna Dunder, were both born in Bohemia, the former on the 2d of November, 1840, and the latter in October, 1841. They became residents of the United States in 1868 and first located four and a half miles southeast of what is now Crete, Nebraska. To his homestead of eighty acres the father added a similar tract by purchase and still later bought a half section of land in Merrick county. He engaged in general farming until 1909, when he retired and removed to Wither, where he and his wife are still living. His land has been divided equally among his nine children and our subject has sold his share, receiving one hundred and five dollars per acre for land which his father bought at seven dollars per acre in pioneer times. Fred Dunder is indebted to the public schools for his education and until PAST AND PRESENT OF SAUNDERS COUNTY, VOL II 367 1895 he remained at home, assisting in the operation of the homestead. He then went to Merrick county, where he farmed until 1911. Two years later he came to Prague and became connected with the automobile business, with F. A. Broz, and the partnership still continues. They built a garage one hundred by twenty-five feet in dimensions, which, however, is now inadequate to meet the demands of their trade, which has grown steadily and rapidly, and they expect to enlarge the garage in the spring of 1916. The garage is well equipped and they do all kinds of repair work in addition to selling automobile parts and accessories. Mr. Dunder was married on the 31st of December, 1900, to Miss Sophia Belik, a daughter of John and Mary Belik, early settlers of Saunders county. Mr. Dunder supports the republican party at the polls but is not otherwise active politically, his business requiring his undivided attention. Among his dominant characteristics are determination, sound judgment and integrity, qualities which go far toward insuring success in any line of work.
