No, they don't. Private keys belong on your closest system, on an
encrypted volume. Often, you will only need one.

Others have touched on this, but I will attempt to summarize.
Each user on each system needs to have a private ssh key, and a public ssh
key.
For maximum security, each key pair should be unique. This means you will
need to copy all of the public keys to all of the other servers, and add
