Married Mary Jurek on January 10, 1906 at St. Bonaventure Catholic Church, Columbus, Nebr. ``````````````` Past and Present of Platte County, Nebraska : A Record of Settlement, Organization, Progress and Achievement. Vol. 2 (Chicago: S. J. Clarke, 1915), pp. 465-66. CHARLES S. JAWORSKI. Charles S. Jaworski, filling the office of deputy sheriff of Platte county, under Mark Burke and making his home in Columbus, was born in Tarnov, this county, on the 2d of April, 1881, his parents being Thomas S. and Josephine (Peconka) Jaworski. The father was a native of East Prussia, born in November, 1855, and in 1872 came to America, establishing his home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he resided for four years. In 1876, attracted by the opportunities of the growing west, he came to Platte county and took up his abode in Burrows township, where he homesteaded eighty acres, upon which he lived for five years. The place was entirely destitute of improvements when it came into his possession and not a furrow had been turned, but with characteristic energy he began to till the fields and develop the property. After five years he removed to Columbus and engaged in drilling wells and in handling farm implements and machinery, becoming one of the substantial merchants and business men of the city. His political support was given the democratic party and he took an active part in advancing its interests and securing its successes. For four years he filled the office of deputy sheriff. His wife was born in Austria in 1860 and they were married in the fall of 1879. Mrs. Jaworski passed away in 1883, while Mr. Jaworski survived for thirty years, his death occurring on the 14th of September, 1913. Both were consistent members of the Catholic church. Their son, Charles S. Jaworski, was educated in the parochial schools of Columbus and on starting out in life on his own account was employed at farm labor for three years. He then turned his attention to the well and implement business, in which he remained for three years, when he entered the employ of the Union Pacific Railway Company as a car repairer, spending six months in that connection. He was then made inspector, which position he filled for four years in Columbus and for four years in South Omaha. He then returned to this city and was engaged in the well business for six and a half years but sold out in 1915, after being appointed to the office of deputy sheriff -- a position which his father had previously acceptably filled and in which he is making an equally creditable record. Mr. Jaworski was married January 10, 1906, to Miss Mary Gurek, who was born in Austria in 1887, and who by her marriage has become the mother of three children: Thomas, who was born October 30, 1906, and Barbara, born December 5, 1909, both attending parochial school; and Helen, whose birth occurred July 11, 1914. The family adhere to the Catholic faith and contribute generously to the support of the church. Mr. Jaworski belongs to the Fraternal Order of Eagles and the Knights of Columbus and he gives his political allegiance to the democratic party, which he has supported since age conferred upon him the right of franchise. He is well known in the county where the greater part of his life has been passed and where substantial qualities have won for him the friendship and regard of many with whom he has become acquainted. `````````````` Columbus Daily Telegram (Columbus, Nebr.), August 13, 1968, p. 6, col. 3 Funeral services were held here today for Charles S.
