In Response To: John & Antonia Chasdek (Kaye Sanchez)

I ran across this bit on the Internet:

Anna Chasdek (or Chastek), thought to be age 110, died July 24, 1892 at Western, Saline County, Nebraska. Reported born on July 26, 1781 in what is now the Czech Republic, perhaps the Brandys and Orlici area, she and her family first settled in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area, then relocated to the Steele City, Jefferson County, Nebraska area before residing on the farm of her son John Chasdek in North Fork Precinct, Section 17, Saline County. Making genealogical study difficult is the variation in the spelling of the family name, including Schastek and Shestak, and language translation. According to the 1885 Nebraska Census for North Fork Precinct, Saline County, there was an Anna listed as age 50, mother of John Chasdek, born in Bohemia. Burial records for Plainview Cemetery near Western indicate a Mrs. A. Chasdek died on July 24, 1892 at 85 years, 8 months, and 13 days, interred in Section 4, Block 22, Lot 1. For history,see article in April 14, 1892 Wilber Republican. While the Western Wave issue that likely included an obituary was missing on microfilm, an obituary did appear in July 27, 1892 Lincoln Daily Nebraska State Journal.
