Notes:

from History of Klamath County, Oregon: Its resources and its people, illustrated
Another of the prominent business men of Klamath County who is of that spendid Bohemian heritage is Frank Charle Klabzuba of Malin. His father, for whom he was named, wasa born in Bohemia in 1840, emigrated to America and was married in St. Joseph, Missouri, to Mary Semenec, born in 1852. From there they soon moved to Belleville, Kansas where they took up a homstead and reared their three sons and two daughters.

Frank C. wasa born in Belleville, Kansas, December 24, 1882 and attended the public schools in Oklahoma and Kansas. He started his farming career by working for wages in Prague, Oklahoma, and later inherited a ranch of 160 acres. His early years were ingaged entirely in farming, sometimes on his own land and sometimes working for others, in Canada and Oklahoma. In the spring of 1909, he became a land agent and was instrumental in bringing the Bohemian colonists to Klamath County. At that time there was much less land than there is now as Tule Lake came right up to the town of Malin. Frank C. Klabzuba was connected with J. Kfank Adams in land development and owned one-fouth of the original townsite of Malin. Mr. Klabzuba is very progressive, as are most of his countrymen, and bought the first combine and caterpillar to be used in the district; contracted for harvesting the second year and soon had to buy a second combine to take care of his contracts. In 1916, he leased land at Tule Lake and farmed for 20 years. Later he engaged in the hotel business in Malin to which he is still giving his undivided attention under the name of Malin Hotel.

While in Prague, Oklahoma, Mr. Klabzuba was married to Anna L Barta, who was born on May 22, 1883 at Ord, Nebraska. Her father, Frank Barta, was born in Bohemia and died in 1920 in Prague, Oklahoma. Anna's mother, Josephine Barta, was born in Bohemia and died in Prague, Oklahoma in 1930. They never came West.

Mr. and Mrs. Klabzuba have two children: Charles Edward, born July 10, 1904, near Viking, Alberta, and Agnes, born at Adams Point, September 1, 1913, wife of Leo J Kreider and now living in Idaho. Mr. Kreider is field man for the Amalgamated Sugar Company at Nolus, Idaho. Mr. Klabzuba is fond of fishing and spends every spare moment in this sport. He is a member of the Elks Lodge of Klamath Falls and of the Malin Chamber of Commerce. Mrs. Klabzuba is mainly interested in her home and family.

Frank married Anna L. BARTA on 13 Dec 1900 in Lincoln, Oklahoma, United States. Anna (daughter of Frank BARTA and Josephine) was born on 2 Jul 1884 in Nebraska, United States; died in Dec 1973 in Pico Rivera, Los Angeles, California, United States; was buried in Prague, Lincoln, Oklahoma, United States.
