Duschak, Wenzel (1871 - 30 NOV 1947)

Funeral services for Wenzel Duschak, 76, of Neillsville (Clark Co., Wis.), were held Wednesday morning at 8:30 at the Georgas Funeral Home, and at 9 o’clock at St. Mary’s Catholic Church. The Rev. Fr. John J. Pritzl officiated. Burial was made in the parish cemetery. Mr. Duschak died Nov. 30, 1947.

He was born in 1871, in Bohemia, and came as a young man to the United States, settling in Dane county. He came to Clark county and purchased a farm in the town of Pine Valley. Later he returned to Dane County, where he managed a farm until his retirement. He returned to this community about 10 years ago. He was never married.

Surviving are several nieces and nephews, among them, Mrs. Ed Hagie of Shortville and Joe Cardarelle of Neillsville.

A rosary service was held Tuesday evening at the funeral home.

I am helping my daughter start doing some genealogy on the Duschak family. Wenzel was the younger brother of Felix Duschak. This obit is great and full of "clues"! She is looking for any information on Felix's family in particular. Thanks for any help. Kirsten
