Bohacek Road down near Beasley, TX off 59S. That would be pronounced "Bo-check," right?

May also be Bo-Sek.

Depends on where your ancestors got off of the boat.

In Czechia, every letter is pronounced. In Texas, you gotta ask people to pronounce their names for you.

I know a guy with that name.
He pronounces it Bo ha (as in hat) sek

Only people with Czech last names can weigh in on this

Czech in laws and agree with this. Their name ends in cek and it's pronounced chek.

The old men would say Bo-Sek… us young honyocks tend to say "shek" instead of just "sek". Maybe that's just around me.

My guess is Bo-ha-shek. But what do I know, I'm just a dumb bohemian

This. My grandfather's farm is made up of numerous tracts bought from old farm families when he was a young man. Bo ha chek is a field on our farm and we still call it that. Named after the family it originally belonged to and the old shell road to the homesite is still visible when it's plowed over. The area was a Czech settlement in SE Tx and the local Catholic Church history book states an Indian family was living in a tent on one of the local farms in 1907.
