• Notes

  Married: Their marriage license, from Dobrs, Book 3, Page 25, 167 Register, showed that they were married on the 28 of January 1828 by Vaclav Bezdeka (Priest), with witnesses being Matej Sluka, a cottager from Volenic #26 and Frantisek Prokop, a peasant from Strasic #14. Joseph and Josefa traveled to America with their two oldest children and a niece, Mary. They spent 17 days on the ocean, enduring a severe five day storm. They landed in Baltimore, travelled by train to Chicago, and then onto Nebraska. They spent the winter with a brother, Vinc. Joseph purchased the S 1/2 SE 1/4 in Section 19 of Liberty Township from the Burlington and Missouri River Railroad company. (Milligan, p 314-315).
