Obituary, from FindAGrave

Alfred Charles Matejka was born to Charles Matejka and Anna Vavra Matejka on October 9, 1923, at Milligan, NE, and passed away June 26, 2013, at Ridgewood Care Center in Seward, Ne, at the age of 89 years, 8 months, and 17 days. He was one of 5 children in the family.

Alfred was born, raised, and lived on the same farm Northeast of Milligan all his life, except for the past 5 1/2 years. After graduating from Milligan High School, in 1942, he started a lifetime career of farming the family farm. In 1984 Alfred was recipient of the Ak-Sar-Ben Pioneer Farm award given to families in Nebraska whose land has been owned by the same family 100 years or more.

Alfred had a love for conversation and telling stories, especially topics such as family and community historic events, pioneer methods and life, and of course the "weather", a true farmer.

Being a very kind and patient person he cared for his mother until she passed away on April 9, 1969.

Alfred married Joy Weddle Eurich March 29,1971. In the 36 years of marriage, Alfred and Joy enjoyed gardening, polka, and country music, travelling, family time, good food and most of all the company of each other.

After Joy passed away in Nov., 2007, Alfred moved to assisted care at the Green House in Seward. Oct 2012 he moved to Ridgewood Care Center, as his health was declining. June 20, 2013, Alfred started receiving Hospice care. During this time he was baptized into the Catholic faith.

To know Alfred was to know his humor and good nature. He always had a smile on his face and a good word until the very end of his life. When asked how he was doing, the answer always was "like an old man'! Never, it seemed did he tire of being outdoors with nature and traveling the countryside looking at crops and the land.

Alfred was preceded in death by his parents, wife Joy, sisters Mollie Nun, Georgia Pracheil, Helene Romero, and Rose Matejka. Stpeson John Eurich and Step-daughter Linda Hamelin.

He is survived by nieces, Patrician and husband Robert Lee; Mary and husband Harlan Mettenbrink; Elaine and husband Merlyn Nielsen; and Maureen and Rodney Nielsen; Step-daughter Janet Hansen and companion Arthur C. Holdawy Jr.; and step-son Larry Eurich and wife Linda; and many nieces, nephews and step grandchildren.

13718 I15169  Matejka  Antonie "Tonie"  11 Jul 1870  14 Apr 1956  In the Milligan Nebraska 1888-1988 book, it was noted that Antonie Matejka was born on June 11, 1840 (p 215) but this appears to be an error. This date of birth would have made her 116 at her date of death. Also, her parents were born in 1835 and 1839 (p 415), and her husband was born in 1864. Her date of birth was probably circa 1870, as it is also noted that "Antonie's father, Frank, and older brother, James came to the country in 1879, and after buying land, sent for his wife....and eight small children....(who traveled) to Bremen, Germany by rail and then boarded a ship to America. Antonie was only nine years old." (p 215)

The Milligan book also notes that "She was devoted to her family and worked diligently for ZCJB Lodge in Milligan and worked for donations and pledges toward the building of the Milligan Auditorium. She also worked for the F.C.D. Organization. Her many handcrafts were appreciated by all and she was a great flower lover and gardener." (Milligan p 215).

It appears that there were TWO Antonie MATEJKA's in or around Milligan, NE who were relatively close in age. There was also an Antonie MATEJKA who was the first wife of Joseph ROHLA, and who was born 22 May 1866 and died 28 May 1943. (Milligan, p 325).

Christina Horlivy, nee Matejka, was born July 24, 1879, at Trtice, Czechoslovakia. She came to America the same year with her parents, Frank and Mary Matejka. They settled on a farm northeast of Milligan, where she grew to womanhood.

She was united in marriage to Frank Motis, June 1, 1900. Two sons were born to this union, Edmen and Frank.

She was united in marriage September 14, 1907, to Mike Horlivy. They made their home north of Milligan until 1927, when they moved to Exeter. Six children were born to this union.

Mrs. Horlivy died June 14, 1942 at the age of 62 years, 10 months, and 21 days, after a very short illness. Her passing was a great shock to relatives and friends.

Mrs. Horlivy underwent many hardships, but was always ready to lend a helping hand. She will long be remembered for her sunny disposition and kindness.

There remain to mourn her departure, her husband, five sons, Edmen Motis, Frank Motis, Charles Horlivy, Fred Horlivy, and Edward Horlivy; two daughters, Helen and Rose, also six grandchildren, one sister, Mrs. Antonia Bulin, four brothers, Frank, Anton, Charles and Emil; and many other relatives and friends.

Three brothers, one sister and a daughter, who died in infancy, preceded her in death.

The funeral services were postponed from Tuesday til Friday, June 19, due to the fact that her son Edward, who is in the army at Camp Roberts, Cal., sent word he was coming.

Frank Matejka was born May 26, 1871 in Trtic, Czechoslovakia. He came to this country with his parents and family in 1879.

He was married to Johanna Zelenka, and to this union were born three daughters, and four sons.

Mr. Matejka had been in poor health several years, and since last spring steadily weakened. Sixteen days ago, he was taken to St. Elizabeth Hospital, where he passed away Monday, October 28, 1957, at the age of 86 years 5 months, and 2 days.

He leaves to mourn his departure his three daughters, Mary, Agnes, and Mrs. William (Ella) Krejdl; and two sons, John and Edward; two granddaughters, Marily Matejka and Mrs. Dean (Betty) McMullin; one brother Emil; and also a host of relatives and friends. His wife, two infant sons, his parents, three sisters and four brothers preceded him in death.

Frank experienced the hard pioneering life with his parents. He and his wife spent their active years farming, retiring to Milligan about 14 years ago. In his years he was a gardener, and also liked to read. He was a kind, loving husband and father; and his friendly qualities will be remembered by his friends and neighbors.

Wayne Keith Matejka was the only child born to Frank and Clara Rippe Matejka on January 7, 1928, at their rural home at Strang, Nebraska. He passed away peacefully at the York General Hospital on February 17 at the age of 86 years, 1 month, and 10 days, surrounded by his wife, five daughters, and five son-in-laws.

He was born and raised on the family farm near Strang where he attended Strang School through the eleventh grade. He attended Ohiowa High School his senior year because he wanted to play basketball and graduated in 1946.

He was baptized June 14, 1928, and confirmed March 14, 1948, at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church (South) (now called Grace Lutheran) of Ohiowa. He transferred his membership in 1951 to St. John's Lutheran Church in Ohiowa.
Wayne married Opal Rose Schrock of Geneva on January 22, 1950, at her brother's home at Davenport, Nebraska. They recently celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary. This marriage was blessed with five daughters--Sherri, Kathy, Deb, Julie, and Kari Jo.

He had many interests. His favorites were softball/baseball and 4-H. He touched the hearts of many people through softball. Wayne had a very successful record of 645 wins and 185 losses with the Strang Ladies Softball team of 40 years. He received the Jim Hall Memorial Award in recognition of his outstanding coaching ability in 1993 and was inducted in the Nebraska Softball Hall of Fame in 1995. Many awards were received for winning league, invitational, district, and state tournaments. The highlight was winning the State Tournament in 1996.
Wayne was involved in 4-H for over 50 years. Being active for many years through the 4-H program as a parent, club leader, and supporter, he attended many county fairs and other shows at the local, state, and national levels. His advice to his girls and grandchildren helped them win many honors and awards.
During his early days of farming, he enjoyed trucking and custom corn shelling. Although his main love was farming, he also enjoyed selling Stormor Bins & Buildings for 45 years. Many trips were made with his red pickup to Omaha, Grand Island, and Fremont
He was active in many community activities--Strang School Board Member for 50 years, Strang CIP, Geneva Rural Fire Board, Belle Prairie Precinct Board, and Exeter Feeders & Breeders Association.
Family activities were important to him whether it was a sports activity, 4-H event, or holiday gathering. During the last few years, Wayne enjoyed spending time at Bubba's Anytime for a cup of coffee, meal at noon, afternoon snack, or evening meal with family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents. Those left to cherish his memory are his wife Opal; five daughters, Sherri (Jim) Reinsch of Geneva; Kathy (Bruce) Soukup of Strang; Deb (Leroy) Rohr of Tobias; Julie (Chris) Dunker of Strang; Kari Jo (Bryan) Alfs of Shickley. Grandchildren are Marc (Marci) Reinsch of Geneva; Jami (Mark) Schmidt of Strang; Brent Reinsch of Geneva; Derek Reinsch of St. Paul; Kali Reinsch of Sutton. Anthony, Ashton, and Ashli Soukup of Strang. Michael (Katy) Rohr of San Antonio, Texas; Brandon Rohr of Jacksonville, Florida; Dustin Rohr of Tobias. John, Regan, and Adam Alfs of Shickley. Great-grandchildren are Marek and Mara Reinsch of Geneva, Cullan Schmidt of Strang, and Austin Rohr of San Antonio, Texas; Step-great-grandchild Marissa Howard of Geneva; and many cousins and host of friends. Wayne is also survived by a long-time employee of nearly 40 years and special friend, Kenny Ebbeka of Strang.
Wayne and Opal have always enjoyed their family. He was the one who has always been there, loved, cared, and provided for us. Someone we LOVE with all our heart.

13764 I29130  Matejovsky  Agnes  14 Apr 1896  22 Apr 1977  Sharon Nemeth emailed that "the marriage date for Agnes Matejovsky & Bert Redmond was 27 Apr 1920. They were going to live in Fairfax, SD, where Agnes was teaching and Vincent Janda was superintendent of schools at the time. Redmond was a local Fairfax boy, owner of the meat market and "Velda Theatre." Sharon further speculated that reason an article about her marriage was not published until the June issue of the Milligan newspaper issues is that Agnes probably in town for Vincent Janda's wedding. The article about Agnes stated that she would be visiting her sister Mrs. Posvar for two weeks.

Stanley Matejovsky was born in Milligan November 12, 1897. He graduated from the Milligan High School with the class of 1916. After finishing his school work he worked here as a farm hand and it was because of his industry and his faithfulness as well as his habits of thrift that he won for himself the respect and esteem of everyone.

It is not so important in life as to the nature of work in which we are engaged. The important thing is that we be engaged int eh first place and that we do what we are engaged in with some degree of efficiency. That is waht this boy did and that is what won for him the commendation and the love of his fellows. Stanley made his home with his father, who was the caretaker of cemeteries and as a school boy he helped his father in this work. He became afflicted with epilepsy and it was this malady which caused his demise.

Stanley Matejovsky passed away at the age of 34 years, 8 months and 1 day.

13794 I44308  Mathews  Inlow  13 Jun 1815  15 Aug 1879  FindAGrave shows that he was born in Wilkes County, Georgia. His mother Selah/Celia Ann, born in North Carolina ca 1779/1780, was living with his family at the time of both the 1850 and 1860 Federal census.

The FindAGrave memorial (#34734655) for Reece Mathews, born 30 Oct 1810 in Georgia, states that Reece was a son of Abraham Mathews and Elizabeth Burroughs, and brother of Inlow. Reece is also buried in the Thomas cemetery, and lived in close proximity to Inlow at the time of the 1850 and 1860 census.

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Mathews&GSiman=1&GScid=7222&GRid=34734655&

Additionally, in 1860, both families were listed with Selah/Celia/Cilia Mathews, age 80, born in North Carolina as a member of their household, even though they were in seperate homes. It is assumed they were brothers, and both sons of Celia Mathews.

13800 I44280  Mathews  Jackson Lee "J. L."  28 Jul 1922  18 Feb 2011  Obituary, copied from FindAGrave:

Jackson Lee (J.L.) Mathews, 88, of Orange, Texas went to be with his heavenly father on February 18, 2011.

Funeral Services will be 10am Monday, February 21, 2011, at Claybar Funeral Home in Orange. Reverend Kevin Trinkle will be officiating. Graveside services will follow at 3pm at McMahan's Chapel Cemetery in Sabine County, Texas.

J.L. was born to Jackson Lee Mathews, Sr. and Hattie Pearl Mathews on July 28, 1922, in San Augustine, Texas. He graduated from San Augustine High School in 1939. He trained in Sheepshead Bay, New York, and served in the United States Merchant Marines from 1940 to 1945. He made 7 voyages during the war years, and was lucky to be anchored in Tokyo Bay the day General MacArthur signed the Peace Treaty with the Japanese.

He married Della Laverne Noble in 1945 and they moved to Orange to start their family. They had two sons: Joseph Jay Mathews and Stanley Noble Mathews, both of Orange.

J.L. was an operator at DuPont River Works for 38 years and retired in 1985. He was a member of the First Presbyterian Church, where he volunteered in the soup kitchen for many years. He was one of the founders of Twin County Little League. He loved to play golf, travel and play with his great-grandchildren. He was a loving husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend who will be missed dearly. He had a kind, loving heart and enjoyed helping others.

J.L. is survived by his wife, Laverne, sons, Jay Mathews and wife, Betty, Stan Mathews and wife, Linda; three grandchildren, Bryan Lee Mathews and wife, Lisa of Kingwood, Texas, Mandy Lea Mathews Mazzola and husband, Brian of Beaumont, Texas and Clay Michael Mathews and wife, Ayumi of Champagne, Illinois and six great-grandchildren, Vincent Noble Mazzola, Anthony Clay Mazzola, Julian Joseph Mathews, Christian Samuel Mathews, Lucian Mathews Mazzola and Sakura Madison Mathews.
