Janeck Genealogy

The Janeck family etched a diverse and entrepreneurial legacy into the fabric of Madison, Wisconsin. Their story begins with skilled craftsmanship, likely as immigrants or first-generation Americans establishing themselves as upholsterers. This hands-on trade evolved, perhaps naturally, into a furniture store, where the Janecks showcased their own creations and broader offerings for the burgeoning city. Showing an adaptability characteristic of successful family businesses, they embraced the changing automotive landscape, transitioning into car dealerships, capturing a different segment of the growing consumer market.
