I am looking for information on a John C. Chvala that was born in Bohemia in 1858. He married Anna Bem in 1885. In 1893, he moved to America where he settled in Nebraska. He had one surviving brother in Europe. I do not know his name and am looking for this information. Please email me with anything you may know. Thank you.

Melissa - My Paternal great grandfather Franz (or Frank as he was known over here) Chvala with his wife, Maria(sometimes called Mary or Marie and their son Domonic(known as Nick) immigrated from Tabor, Czechoslovakia on May 29th, 1868 on the four masted bark, the Magdalene. I believe my grandmother Anna Chvala was born here, and they settled in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area. Maybe their's a link somewhere there.
