V. K. KASPAR. V. K. Kaspar, who is engaged in general farming in Elk precinct, is the owner of two hundred and forty acres of rich and productive land, of which two hundred acres is situated on his home farm and forty acres in Mariposa precinct. He is one of the native sons of Saunders county, his birth having occurred in Chester precinct on the 1st of November, 1869, his parents being Vaclav and Mary (Cizek) Kaspar, of whom mention is made elsewhere in this work in connection with the sketch of J. V. Kaspar. The family is an old and prominent one in this part of the state, having been closely connected with the development and growth of the county from pioneer times. V. K. Kaspar was educated in the common schools, which he attended through the winter seasons, while in the summer months he aided in the work of the home farm. After his textbooks were put aside his entire attention was concentrated upon the farm until he reached the age of twenty-five years. At that time he and his brother took charge of the old homestead which they thus operated for a year. At the end of that time V. K. Kaspar was married and continued to cultivate and develop the old home place of two hundred and eighty acres for nine years, renting that farm from his father. At the end of that time he purchased one hundred and twenty acres from his father and has since added another tract of similar amount, so that he now has a well improved property of two hundred and forty acres. Upon the farm are good buildings, including a substantial residence and good barns and outbuildings that furnish ample shelter for grain and stock. He cultivates the cereals best adapted to soil and climate and annually gathers good harvests as the result of his labor. He also makes a specialty of raising Red Polled cattle and Poland China hogs. On the 28th of January, 1896, Mr. Kaspar was married to Miss Lena Sedlacek, a daughter of John Sedlacek, who came from Bohemia to Saunders county in 1890. Eight children have been born of this marriage: James; Charles; Leo; Frank; Zedenka, deceased; George; Victor; and Thomas. It is Mr. Kaspar's aim and purpose to give his children the best educational opportunities possible. In politics he is a democrat but not an office seeker, and he has no church or fraternal relations. He is above all a home man, devoted to his family, and is putting forth every possible effort to promote the welfare of his wife and children.
