    Right: Map showing Richland County, Wisconsin It wasn’t New York that attracted the most early Czech immigrants, but Wisconsin. Wisconsin became a state in 1948, which also the year of the beginning of the mass emigration from the Austrian Empire to the United States. Wisconsin wanted to attract settlers and developed advertising to welcome Czech emigrants. One advertisement pamphlet read. "Come! In Wisconsin all men are free and equal before the law... Religious freedom is absolute and there is not the slightest connection between church and state. So many Czech immigrants settled in western Wisconsin that Richland Center has the National Czech Cemetery and nearby are Bohemian Valley and the village Mr. Tabor. More recently this center for Czech Americans has attracted one unusual person. She lives in a one-bedroom apartment in Richland Center, surrounded by photos of her daughter. Newspaper reporter Doug Moe asked: "Do your neighbors know your background?" "I don't know," she said with a smile. "Probably they will now." Lana Peters, 84, is the only daughter of Josef Stalin, the brutal dictator of the Soviet Union who died in 1953. Her defection to the U.S. in 1967 - when she was known as Svetlana Alliluyeva - made headlines around the world. Peters first came to Wisconsin in 1970 and to Richland Center three years ago. Lana is a small woman. She uses a cane and has some difficulty walking, but her mind is lively. She smiles often. She likes to sew and read, mostly non-fiction. She listens to public radio and doesn't own a TV.

  • William Wesley Peters."
    WES PETERS – THE EARLY YEARS YOUTH William Wesley (Wes) Peters was born in Terra Haute, Indiana on June 12, 1912, the son of Frederick Romer Peters and Clara Margedant Peters. The Peters had one other child, Margedant. Mr. Peters was a newspaper reporter and the family soon moved to Indianapolis where Wes entered grade school in 1917 at School #66. In the 1920s, the family moved to Evansville, Indiana where Wes Peters’ father was offered a position with the Evansville Press. Of this period, Mr. Wright recalled "Who's Who says the editor was the man who drove the Ku Klux Klan out of Indiana. He did, practically single-handed." Wes attended Stanley Hall and then Benjamin Bosse High School in Evansville, graduating in June 1929. A solid B student, it is not surprising his best grade was a 95% in trigonometry, followed closely by a 93% in modern history. Math was his best subject overall. Over the four years he also took Latin, French, and German. COLLEGE For his first year of college (1929-1930), Wes stayed home and attended Evansville College, now the University of Evansville. Planning to pursue an education in architecture, Wes took as many math courses as allowed. The next fall Wes was accepted into the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, at the time considered the leading architectural school in the United States. Wes remained in the architectural program at MIT for the next two school years, including the summer of 1931. During that summer he worked in a local architectural office for credit, where he continued part time during his second year.

Coupling the seat of county government with the necessary facilities to make the selected site into a center of community activity had long been the dream of many far-sighted citizens. World famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright was engaged by the Board of Supervisors to prepare a Mas- ter Plan to encompass the elements of this daring concept. In March 1957 Mr. Wright present- ed plans for the first construc- tion phase - the Administration Building. A year later he added plans for the fairgrounds pavil- ion, playgrounds, lagoon and gen- eral civic areas. The Master Plan connected gently sloping hills with graceful hori- zontal buildings springing in great arches over entrance road- ways between the hills.
