John & Mary Marvicka HURT Branch

The HURT's came to America in 1877 from French Bohemian. They came with a brother and his wife and family (Anton and Eloize (Louise)) and an unmarried nephew (Vaclav HURT).

They settled in Posen, Nebraska (the town later changed name to Farewell). They all homesteaded land very close to each other. Sometime around 1896 when the John and Mary HURT branch of the family split up, their son (Anton and his wife Cecila) going to Minnesota and the rest of the John and Mary HURT family going to Oklahoma.

John's brother (Anton and his wife, Louise) stayed in Farwell with their families and there are still people living there. Vaclav HURT married, also, and some of his relatives are still in the Farwell area.

HURT family split up in Nebraska because of farm depression, grasshoppers, and disease. John and Mary and all of their children and grandchildren (except son, Anton and his wife Cecila) went to Oklahoma because they heard there was land opening up for homesteading.

Anton (son of John and Mary MARVICKA HURT) married Cecila and homesteaded in Hallock, Minnesota. They proved their homestead in 3 years and went to Oklahoma and stayed 3 years before returning to Minnesota about the time the Red Lake Indian Reservation opened up at Thief Rivers Falls.
