Here is all of the information I have from the Sheda family you requested.
Frank Sheda was born on Jan. 30, 1842 in Bohemia. His wife, Frances was also born in Bohemia on August 29, 1844. They immigrated to the US in the 1870's with their eldest son, Frank and my great-grandmother, Mary Katherine. Frank was born in Nov. 1867 and Mary K. was born on Oct. 29, 1869. Frank and Frances married around 1866 in Bohemia. When they came to the US they settled in Guernsey, Powesheik Co., Iowa. They had 3 other children, all born in Powesheik Co.: Annie, John, and Katie. Annie was born in April 1881, John and Katie were twins and they were born in May 1883. Frank Sr. did become a naturalized citizen and his name was spelled Freutisek Seda. He was naturalized on September 27, 1879 in Powesheik Co. Frances died on August 1, 1932 and Frank died on Feb. 27, 1919. They are both buried together in the Guernsey Cemetary.
