I forgot to add the county the previous post was from. It is Boyd county Nebraska.
This blog is to help with my research of the Slechta name and history. If you are a descendant of a Slechta and would like to participate in the Slechta History research I am doing please contact me. If you have ties to the Slechta name please contact me even if you don't think we are related. Any piece a data could help link the past together. Schlechta is also a spelling for the same name.

Sadska Slechtas
Well I got the results back from the researcher in Sadska. He got back to 1738 so one more time with him and he should be able to finish off Sadska for me. I do know Slechta’s arrived in Sadska about 1670, so I hope there will be information on where they came from before Sadska. If any Slechta’s, Schlechta’s or Slechtova’s came from Sadska I could give you the researchers name and e-mail address. He could surely help find information for you. Also, if anyone has ancestors from there please contact me. We may be able to link the information with what I have and work together to get further back.
Yes the researcher does cost money and yes splitting up the cost would help.
