    Notes 
    • 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).
