History of the Family of Blahnik of Smrzovice (1482-1944)
Blahniks of Smrzovice
by Ladislav Blahnik . . .Vaclav Blahnik, who married in Dobrikov into house #23, had a daughter, Katerina. His wife took on a lover who was a railroad employee and came to America. Vaclav Blahnik gave the farm later to his daughter who then married Matouse Mrazk, who later sold that farm and purchased another farm in Struhadlo close to Klatovy in house #22. Mrazk died in 1933 as a widower at the age of 81 because of the illness of 'marasmus' (birth records in Bezdekov). Vaclav Blahnik, himself, after he gave the farm to Katerina, who was married to Mrazk, bought himself a cottage in Soustov where he lived alone and worked with Novaks in Soustov. (Novak, himself, was a miner and worked in a mine). Novak had a daughter who had a baby by Vaclav Blahnik. The child was recorded in Novak' s name, (maybe because he took over the duty of its upbringing). Anyway, the name Novak could also be after his single daughter (the mother). The mother of' the baby was sent to America.
Editorial note; observe one of the many reasons of the 'why' and 'how' of America in terms of its European settlers. Most directly observe the names of Novak, Blahnik, Halama, etc. who settled in the middle 1800's around the Kewaunee, Wisconsin area.

Email received I stumbled upon your Blahnik genealogy page and came across something which ties into my family history. I was wondering if you had more information on this -- I would be grateful for anything you may have. I am refering to the page http://blahnik.accessgenealogy.com/smrzovic.htm concerning VACLAV BLAHNIK, b. June 30, 1833. It says:... Vaclav Blahnik, himself, after he gave the farm to Katerina, who was married to Mrazk, bought himself a cottage in Soustov where he lived alone and worked with Novaks in Soustov. (Novak, himself, was a miner and worked in a mine). Novak had a daughter who had a baby by Vaclav Blahnik. The child was recorded in Novak' s name, (maybe because he took over the duty of its upbringing). Anyway, the name Novak could also be after his single daughter (the mother). The mother of the baby was sent to America.I am a decendent of Josef Nov�k from Soustov #20. This whole last part of the story is uncanny -- I have highlighted the facts of the story that are identical with the story that we Novak descendents have. There is only one Novak family in Soustov in this time frame, so there is no doubt that these are the right Novaks. The daughter was Marie Novak, born 08 Oct 1853. The illegitimate child was Josef Nov�k, born 20 May 1877. No father is recorded in the parish register, so the child took the last name of the mother. Marie and her two brothers left for America 6 years later in 1883. The child was left with his grandparents at Soustov #20 for upbringing and will eventually inherit the farm, marry and have children of his own.It's funny that both stories attach meaning to the fact that the child took the Novak name. Actually, there was no choice -- there is no father recorded on the birth record which means that the child takes the name of the mother. Legally there was no choice, but both stories try to attach meaning to this fact. Blahnik was 44 years old at the time and Marie 24 ... me thinks this is not innocent pre-marital sex.Now here is where our stories diverge: Marie married a man named Jakub Heidelberg 3 years later in 1880 -- they married, went to America and had many children. Our Novak family stories say that Jakub was also the father of the illegitimate child -- which I have always found somewhat odd. It does show Marie in a better light, but why did Marie and Jakub never go back and add the name of the father to the parish register? This happens very often that children are legitimated years later when the parents do marry. So why didn't they do that, if he really was the father? Obviously because he's not the father ... it's Vaclav Blahnik. We have no information that Novak was a miner. Our information shows that he was a tenant farmer. Do you kow more about that?Jim Johnson,

Hi Jim,
Thank you for sending some very interesting information. The information you are talking about was collected by Ladislav Blahnik in Czech. Ladislav is now deceased. The full text you are referring to is about:
Vaclav (XIV5) Blahnik
born June 30, 1833. . .Vaclav Blahnik, who married in Dobrikov into house #23, had a daughter, Katerina. His wife took on a lover who was a railroad employee and came to America. Vaclav Blahnik gave the farm later to his daughter who then married Matouse Mrazk, who later sold that farm and purchased another farm in Struhadlo close to Klatovy in house #22. Mrazk died in 1933 as a widower at the age of 81 because of the illness of 'marasmus' (birth records in Bezdekov). Vaclav Blahnik, himself, after he gave the farm to Katerina, who was married to Mrazk, bought himself a cottage in Soustov where he lived alone and worked with Novaks in Soustov. (Novak, himself, was a miner and worked in a mine). Novak had a daughter who had a baby by Vaclav Blahnik. The child was recorded in Novak' s name, (maybe because he took over the duty of its upbringing). Anyway, the name Novak could also be after his single daughter (the mother). The mother of' the baby was sent to America.
Editorial note; observe one of the many reasons of the 'why' and 'how' of America in terms of its European settlers. Most directly observe the names of Novak, Blahnik, Halama, etc. who settled in the middle 1800's around the Kewaunee, Wisconsin area.I want to send this information along to Joel Blahnik who is from the Smrzovic family and might be able to know more about this. He is in Czech right now so I don't know if he can respond. He recently visited with Eva Blahnikova-Ross who had a connection with Ladislav. Are you saying that Vaclav (XIV5) born 6/30/1833 had a son by Marie Novak (b. 11/8/1853 Soustov #20) named Joseph Novak born 5/20/1877. Marie went to America in 1883 with her two brothers but Joseph Novak was left in Czech with his Novak Grandparents (via Ladislav's account) and that Marie married Jakub Heidelburg in 1880 and came to America with him (your family account)If this is correct did Joseph (son of Vaclav and Marie) eventually come to America or are you descended from another of Marie and Jakub Heidelberg's children.I have seen quite a few marriages in Czech during this time were the child was later legitimized by marriage.Please let me know if I have the information organized the way you are saying it. I'm copying Joel in on this email along with your message below for his thoughts. Thanks for the information.

7/27/03 Lori Dollevoet :I was recently on vacation and came upon an article that was laminated and displayed in the Antigo Museum. No date or newspaper name tough. I got a rough photo copy but it reads:BLAHNIK FAMILY HAD MUSICAL TRADITION
(editor's note: local historian Harold Klessig has been studying the history of the Blahnik family, well-known craftsmen and musicians. A story in Wednesday's newspaper looked at the family's furniture making endeavors. Today's article focuses on their musical talents).
By Harold Klessig
Woodworking may have been their principal craft, but the Blahnik family of Antigo also had another special talent.
While widely known as the manufacturer of quality church and other furiture, they were probably better known for the Blahnik dance bands that entertained throughout the entire area for almost five decades. (See Band Page 11)
BAND
The probable originator of the musical talents was Joseph Blahnik, the father of Adolph Blahnik, who was the father of the Blahnik family that moved to Antigo in 1936. Joseph was born in Czechoslovakia. He was educated in Prague where he learned to play several instruments, especially the trumpet. In the 1850-s he sailed for America.
Arriving in New York he was offered a job with a symphony orchestra. Joseph had other plans, however. He wanted to farm in WIsconsin and turned down the job offer. He bought a farm five miles south of Kewaunee.
It wasn't long, according to his grandson, Milas Blahnik, before he was involved with the Schauer Brass Band, one of the first bands in that area. Later Joseph started his own band.
Besided Adolph, Joseph had four other sons, Frank, Louis, Joseph Jr., and Otto. All played in bands in the Kewaunee area but Adolph was the first to start his own band. Later some of the other brothers also had their own bands.
Adolph also conducted an orchestra for silent movies in the old Kewaunee opera house.
The first Blahnik musician to come to Antigo was Adolph's oldest son, Edward. Antigo's famed American Legion Marching Band was in need of a trumpet player in 1934. A local Legionnaire had heard of the Blahnik musicians of Kewaunee and contacted Edward who was working in Manitowoc. The promise of a job at the Vulcan Last plant here induced Edward to come to Antigo and play in the Legion band.
Two years later the Adolph Blahnik family moved here to start a cabinet and furniture manufacturing firm on Sixth Avenue near Spring Brook.
All of the Blahniks were versatile musicians and all could play several instruments. Adolph, howver, was the only one who could play clarinet. Adolph also arranged music for his won and other bands in the area. The first Blahnik band here was started by brothers Edward and Melvin. It was an immediate sucess.
? ? ? ? with the orchestra along with their father Adolph Sr.
Sylvia Blahnik was the only daughter to play with the band. Her sister, Mabel played in the Kewaunee High School orchestra and with her brothers, Melvin and Milas played in the high school band that performed at Green Bay Packer football games.
The band here played mainly in Langlade, Shawano and Marathon counties although several times during the years they played in other parts of the state and occasionally returned to their home grounds in Kewaunee.
They played at dance pavilions such as Mayflower, Riverview, Post Lake, Tigerton, and Eau Clair Dells. They also played at weddings and many of the high school proms in the area including the Antigo proms.
A number of musicians in the Antigo area played with the Blahnik band on a regular basis. They included Roland Schmiege, Ruben Meyer, Ray Cornelius, Norbert Kautzn, John Novak, Paul Masek, Jerry Smetana and Alvin Fischer. Other musicians also filled in occasionally.
Durning the years in ANtigo the members of the Blahnik family at times played with other bands.
Three of the brothers at times played with the popular Romy Gosz Band. Melvin was with Gosz in 1941, Milas in 1942 and Edward was with the Gosz band during WWII when he worked in a Manitooc shipyard.
They also played in the American Legion Band, which was well known throughout Wisconsin during the 1920's and 30's. Later they were part of the city's Cosmopolitan Orchestra and after that of the Centennial Orchestra.
They were also part of the Veterans of Foreign Wars band started after WWII by then Antigo High School band director Joseph Bauschka.
After playing in the band most of their lives, some of the brothers began to retire about 1990 and that was the end of the Blahnik Band era. Some ot the brothers, however, continued to play with other bands.
Even today, according to Milas, some of the brothers get together with other musicians. They play ????

There are about twenty-two settlers in the Lincoln District of Polar township. William Peters came to that district in 1900 from Germany, settling on section 35. August Erickson came from Sweden in 1905, settling on section 26. Frank Rychlik came from Bohemia, taking up land in section 26. He came in 1908. Albert Smola came from Pennsylvania in 1908, settling on section 26, and the same year Frank Hlinsky, a Chicagoan, took up a farm on section 35. This district had one sawmill on section 35, operated by water power. ADOLPH BLAHNIK ran it for four years. The first school was held in the William Peters home. Early pupils were Cora Peters, Emma Peters, and Eric Jartzke, while Lena Wendorf was the first teacher. The present school was erected in 1912 on section 25 by C. F. Dallman at a cost of $1,400. The 1921-22 officials of this district were A. BLAHNIK, Clerk; Louis Peters, Treasurer, and Emil Pautz, Director. The region is rolling and in some places level. Drew Creek runs through it. =========
