Rose Northern History Publishing Company, Jackson, Minnesota, 1910 p. 507 FRANK J. PRIBYL (1886) farms the southeast quarter of section 20, Hunter township, which he rents from his father. He was born on that farm June 4, 1886, and has always made his home there. He is the son of Albert and Mary (Koranda) Pribyl, now residents of Jackson. They were born in Bohemia and after their arrival to America resided in the city of Chicago and a little later came to Jackson county. The head of the family bought the farm in Hunter township where his son now lives, and that was his home until he moved to Jackson. Frank attended the district schools and grew to manhood on the farm. Until he was twenty-three years of age he worked for his father; then his parents took up their residence in town, and since that time Frank has conducted the home farm. He is unmarried and makes his home with his sister, Mary Pribyl. His brothers and sisters are Mary, Aggie, Bessie, Jerry, Wesley, August, Charlie and Joseph.
