Title A name given to the resource Sisters of Notre Dame Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Sisters of Notre Dame; Wilber Czech History Harvest, 2016 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Creative Commons 4.0 License Description An account of the resource The Sisters of Notre Dame arrived in the United States in 1910 to administer the Hessoun Orphanage in Fenton, Missouri. They relinquished control of the orphanage in 1920 and established a mother house near Omaha, Nebraska. As of 2016 they have a presence in Nebraska, Iowa, and South Dakota. Document A resource containing textual data. Note that facsimiles or images of texts are still of the genre text. Text Any textual data included in the document. The Notre Dame Sisters first arrived in the United States on May 10, 1910, in response to several requests for sisters to aid in the settlement and education of Czech immigrants. Five Czech sisters came at the invitation of Rev. Charles Bleha of St. Louis, Missouri to staff the newly constructed Hessoun Orphanage at nearby Fenton. The sisters arrived to find the orphanage, not only unoccupied, but unfinished. Under the gracious and inspiring leadership of Mother Mary Qualberta (Krivanec), the sisters weathered numerous discouragements, home-sickness, and difficult labors. After several months, their efforts began to be rewarded as the orphanage started to fill with children and their work became quickly recognized. Several young women, wishing to dedicate their lives to the service of God, applied for admission as sisters. It was at Fenton, on Jan. 14, 1913, that the first novices were received into the community. Among these was Dorothy Pelnar, now known as sister Wenceslava. Additional sisters arrived from Czechoslovakia to open schools in Czech settlements in Iowa and Eastern Nebraska. Due to the growing need for the sisters in these other areas, the Hessoun Orphanage was relinquished to the Moravian Sisters of the Holy Cross in 1920. The Notre Dame Motherhouse was subsequently established in Florence, a suburb of Omaha, Nebraska.

Title A name given to the resource The Scaletta Fruit Stand on 13th and Harney, Omaha, Ne Subject The topic of the resource Italian-American history; Little Italy, Omaha, Ne Description An account of the resource This is a photo of Michele Wyman's great great grandmother and grandfather, Josie and Joe Scaletta. The photo is from 1907, and shows Josie and Joe on 13th and Harney street in Omaha, Ne. Their parents came from Italy, and would be Wyman's great great great grandparents. Her great great great grandfather originally came in 1885, with the first trace of him found in Joplin, MO. He came with his stepson Joe, and later Josie came with her stepmother. Joe and Josie were step-siblings, and then married each other. This side of Wyman's family is from Trabia, Sicily, while the other side is from Carlentini, Sicily. It is likely that the fruit stand read "California Fruit Stand" because the Scalettas allegedly lived in California for a short period of time, and then moved back to Omaha after an earthquake hit.
