JULIUS JORGENSEN cemetery #89A From Der Nord Westen, 25 Feb. 1909: An odd death which occurred in Two Rivers was reported to us. A man named Julius Jorgenson, of Norwegian descent, had lodged about two weeks in Wisconsin House. The man was sickly and unemployed. Some years ago he had broken his leg and it never healed properly, causing difficulty for Jorgenson. For several years he worked with farmer Matt. Kummes until no longer able. He then came into the city and worked a few weeks as a stableman at Washington House and did odd jobs for years at Wisconsin House. He had managed to put a little money aside, and a few days ago gave the proprietor of Wisconsin House a check for $250.00 and asked him to use it for Jorgenson’s funeral in case he should die. Friday morning Jorgenson did not come to breakfast and it was thought he didn’t feel well. When he didn’t show up for lunch Mr. Reinert, the proprietor, became concerned and went to Jorgenson’s room only to find him dead in bed. A doctor was called to establish that the man had died a natural death about midnight. Mr. Reinert has fulfilled the man’s last wishes and arranged for the funeral.

TOMAS JURANEK cemetery #34 THE CECHS IN AMERICA The progressives scored a triumph when Klacel arrived in the United States, in 1869. Here was an author of distinction, a much-talked-of philospher and intimate friend of some of the greatest men and women of Bohemia. A report which preceded him from abroad that he was coming to America to found a commune of followers, added, if anything, to the magic of his name. Even men who had studied theology or were duly ordained as priests, turned against their Church. Few of these endured more for a principle than Father Thomas Juranek. Coming to America in 1848 or 1849, a backwash of revolutionary Bohemia, Juranek tried hard to get a start at something that was more to his liking than the pulpit. He drudged for a time at cigarmaking in New York. Seeing no prospects in this occupation, he made his way to Milwaukee; there he became a fruit peddler. Saving a few dollars he bought a hand-organ and with this instrument strapped to his back, he tramped along the Mississippi River to New Orleans and back to Wisconsin. He settled in Cooperstown, in Manitowoc County; there he established himself as a schoolmaster, cigarmaker, justice of the peace, and newspaper correspondent. (1) He died March 5, 1890.
