Current level of knowledge on Svach family only includes time in Texas and then only from about 1880 and after. Arrival was sometime in 1879 according to what we believe. Where he arrived is unknown. The records of his early days are sketchy but what there is was found in Burleson & Lee Counties. After 1892, when he moved to Waller county, more is known. I am in contact with Stasny cousins who still live in Waller county. Frank's daughter Agnes married a Stasny. The cousins are same generation removed from Frank Svach as me, he was our great-grandfather, but we had different great-grandmothers. I have identified the gravesite, know cause of death, self-inflicted gunshot wound, and so forth. Still no progress on finding his origins in Czech, Moravia or Slovakia. Have only hearsay and little of that to go on.
