      Voter Registration for Joseph Lande (Oct. 16, 1888)
      Voter Registration for Joseph Lande (Oct. 16, 1888)

    • Name Joseph W LANDE  [2, 3
      • From the birth record of Bohumil, I picked up some additional information on Joseph.

        It seems to state that Joseph's father was a Josef Lande, but also it lists his mother as Rosina Lande.

        It says that he was from Jablonec #39 in the district Bilin. I was able to find birth records for middle 1800's for Jablonec on the website: Digital Archives in Litomericich. (http://vademecum.soalitomerice.cz). This was a very very difficult database to explore. I went page by page through birth and marriage records.

        This Joseph Lande, son of Josef and Rosina, appears to be the only child of Rosina's to live. In fact, I was not able to find the actual birth record this Joseph, so I truly believe that he was adopted (born with another name) because all of the other children died, including one who was born in the time period that this Joseph was born.

      • I've estimated November as his birth month by putting it between the 2 other siblings born in November in the years before and after him.


        He must have been born in House #31, since all of his siblings were born there.


        The other church records indicate that he was born in Bilin.

      • His wife, Frances, is listed in the 1897 City Directory, as the widow of Joseph.

        The Cook County Death Records show him being buried in the Bohemian National Cemetery but I could not find that record in the BNC Burial Records.
