He came to America with his parents in 1879. While living near Alliance, Neb., his father and sister were killed by lightning. He returned to Fillmore county, where he lived several years, going then to Canada. After staying there for four years, he again returned to Nebraska. May 22, 1907, he was married to Mary Hlina. To them were born two children, one dying at the age of 2 years, 2 months and 19 days. In March 1912, Mr. Janda moved his family to Nelson, Neb., where he had bought a farm. He had been ailing since the first of the year and in April went to Lincoln to consult a specialist. May 1 he was operated on for appendicitis but it was found that cancer of the stomach was his real ailment. May 19 he was brought to the home of his father-in-law, where everything was done to relieve his suffering. There are left to mourn his death his wife and little son, five brothers, five sisters, a stepmother and a host of friends. Card of Thanks I wish to thank all and especially the Woodmen who so kindly helped us during the sickness and burial of my husband. Mrs. Mary Janda (Courtesy of Sharon Nemeth) |

| 11212 | I20088 | Janda | Josef | Abt 1844 | 16 Aug 1894 | 0 | His marriage license, from Dobrs, Book 3, Page 25, 167 Register, showed him as a cottager from Volenic house #26 county of Strakonice, son of Jan JANDA, cottage from Volenic house #26 and mother, Marie born VOJAT from Volenic house #41. He was shown as Catholic and single, age 24. His passport, issued in 1880, showed him to be born in 1844, of medium build with brown hair and green eyes. Joseph was a tailor. After his first wife (Josefa Rejsek) died, Joseph decided to move to Western Nebraska where much cheap land was available. He and his 15 year old daughter Mary moved to Box Butte County, near, Lawn and set up a homestead. Leaving Mary and a hired hand to hold down the claim, he returned to Fillmore County to sell his holdings there and move the rest of his family. Joseph, Mary and Frank plowed to new prarie land and planted flax, corn and wheat. The new area was difficult for farming, however, and was eventually seized by the bank. Joseph moved to Wyoming and hauled timber ties, eventually saving enough money to resume farming. After he and daughter Antonie were killed by lightning in an electrical storm, however, this children from his first marriage decided to return to Fillmore County. Joseph's second wife, Rousy, married a homesteader in the area, and they also returned to Fillmore County (Milligan, p 314). From the HEMINGFORD GUIDE, August 17, 1894, courtesy of Sharon Nemeth "A severe electric storm passed over the western part of the county yesterday afternoon, during which lightning struck the house of Joseph Janda, on 21-27-52, eighteen miles west of Hemingford, killing Mr. Janda and his thirteen year old daughter outright. Mr. Janda was a hard-working, honest and prosperous Bohemian farmer, and a leader among his people. THE GUIDE extends Mrs. Janda and her remaining children heartfelt sympathies." |

In the Thursday, March 20, 1913 issue of the Nebraska Signal a four page article was written about the tournament. Vincent Janda was named to the First all-state Team. It was reported that "Janda, the final selection for the first team, was the star of the tournament. No player compared with him in shooting goals. He was a demon on defense and on offense he could not be checked. His ability to break through three or four men because of his great strength was only surpassed by his ability to shoot baskets. From any point he found the rings nearly every time and, although a guard, piled up a record of scores surpassed by few forwards." Sharon also noted that Vincent Janda and May Paine were married 05 Jun 1920. Her father officiated, although they were married at her home, not at the church he served. Her father was the minister at Bethany Christian Church. 1225 06/08/1920 0 01 J530 JANDA, VINCENT; MARRIAGE: LANCASTER COUNTY, BETHANY.

Synovec Funeral service for Harriet will be 2:00 p.m. Wednesday, November 23, 2016, at the Farmer & Son Funeral Home - Kotas Chapel in Milligan, Nebraska with Kim Dunker officiating. Visitation will begin Tuesday, at 4:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. at the Funeral Home in Milligan and Wednesday 12:00 noon until service. Burial will be in the Bohemian National Cemetery following the service. Memorials are directed to the family for later designation. Harriet Estella (Jansky) Synovec was born on September 9.1028, on a farm near Tobias, Nebraska and passed away on November 19, 2016, at the Wilber Care Center at the age of 88 years 2 months and 10 days. Harriet, one of five children, attended school in Tobias through the 12th grade graduating in 1945. While attending high school she received her teaching accreditation. The family moved to a farm 5 miles east of Milligan, and at that time she taught at Opossum Hill School, many days walking 1 ? miles to and from school. She worked for 2 years saving money to purchase a kitchen table and dresser for her new home with Milton. Harriet married Milton Synovec on June 9, 1948 in Wilber, Nebraska. They made their home on a farm 8 miles east of Milligan, Nebraska where they farmed and raised their four children, Gene, Carol, Cindy and Gale. Together her and Milton ran a repair shop with Harriet being the bookkeeper for the business. Harriet was a housewife and mother and was willing to help wherever needed. Harriet loved working with her flowers, gardening, canning and freezing all the produce to be used to feed the family, and as they grew it came in very handy when they would pop in for a visit. She loved her family and after the arrival of 9 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren time was spent with them learning to bake cookies and breads for them all to take home. She enjoyed spending time reading to the grandkids curled up on her lap. She also raised chickens and ducks and the grandkids would help gather the eggs and was affectionately known to all "Grandma Chicken." One of Harriet's special hobbies was making denim quilts out of Grandpas old overalls, which was presented to each grandchild and they are still enjoying them today. Harriet and Milton continued to live on the farm until Milton's health failed and was moved to the Friend Nursing Home, passing away in 2009. Harriet made the decision to go to the Wilber Care Center in July of 2014. There she made many friends with the residents and staff and enjoyed visiting doing word search and watching television. Harriet was a very caring person and even in her final days would ask about the well being of the family. Harriet is survived by her children; Gene and wife Dorothy Synovec of Western, Carol and husband Dr. Bruce Kennedy of Crete, Cindy and husband Gary Kastanek, of Tobias, Gale and husband Curtis Zach of Wilber; Grandchildren Stacey and husband Cory Nickel, Heather and husband Tim Sejkora, Gwen Thompson, Jennifer and husband Jeff Meinke, Jon and wife Shannon Kennedy, Amanda and husband Jason Dean, Jim Synovec, Josh Zach, and Jessie Zach and 18 Great Grandchildren. Sister, Marian and husband Walt Umphlett of Santa Maria, California, brother Larry and wife Diane Jansky of Milligan.

| 11228 | I32200 | Jansky | Karl Guthe | 22 Oct 1905 | 14 Feb 1950 | 0 | Karl Jansky, often referred to as the father of radio astronomy, was born on October 22, 1905 in Norman, Oklahoma. He was one of six children born to Nellie Jansky and Cyril Jansky, from whom he and his three brothers acquired an interest in physics at a young age. Cyril Jansky was a professor of electrical engineering and Dean of the College of Engineering at the University of Oklahoma before later accepting an appointment at the University of Wisconsin. It was in Wisconsin that Karl Jansky began his formal education. Following his public school years, he entered the state university, where he embarked on a study of physics. Jansky received a B.S. degree in 1927, graduating with honors. He remained at the university for an extra year as an instructor and completed coursework towards a graduate degree, but did not receive the degree at that time because he did not write a thesis. Jansky began working at Bell Laboratories in 1928, despite the company's initial hesitation to hire him due to his health problems (Jansky had been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease in college). At Bell, he was assigned to a project investigating possible sources of interference in shortwave radio communications across the Atlantic. To embark on this study, it was necessary for Jansky to design special instrumentation. The large, directional antenna system he built to receive radio waves was mounted on a motor-driven turntable so that it rotated in all directions, resulting in it being nicknamed Jansky's merry-go-round. In addition to this device, he designed a receiver that minimized static and an apparatus for recording static variations. The new equipment was set up in Holmdel, a rural part of New Jersey, in 1930, and soon after the task of collecting data began. Jansky spent many months recording the characteristics and intensity of static his instrumentation received, most commonly at a wavelength of 14.6 meters. In 1932, he reported his early findings and classified the static into three basic types. The first he attributed to local thunderstorms, the second to distant thunderstorms, and the third type, as he described it, was ?i?"composed of very steady hiss static the origin of which is not yet known."?/i? Jansky had already at that point, however, begun to understand where the static was coming from, though he had been warned by his boss to be careful in declaring the information in case he proved to be wrong. The caution advised at Bell was understandable because Jansky believed the signal was coming from the center of the Milky Way galaxy and no one had ever detected extraterrestrial signals before. The first clues that the static in question was extraterrestrial were revealed to Jansky during his study of its intensity, which peaked when the antenna was positioned so that it pointed at a particular part of the sky. Initially Jansky believed the point of the peak intensity to be following the sun and, thus, thought the sun might be the source of the signal. Over time, however, the peaks appeared to increasingly deviate from the path of the sun and he realized that they occurred not every 24 hours, as would be expected if the sun was the signal's source, but rather every 23 hours and 56 minutes. When he discussed the phenomenon with an acquaintance who had a background in astronomy, he was made aware that the four minute variation was characteristic of sidereal time, that is, time determined by the apparent daily motions of the stars. The sidereal day is shorter than the solar day because it is based solely on the amount of time required for the Earth to make a single rotation about its axis, whereas the solar day depends on this rotation as well as the Earth's orbit around the sun. This information, along with data indicating that the emission was coming from the direction of the constellation Sagittarius, enabled Jansky to firmly conclude that the mysterious signals were coming from space. In 1933, Jansky published three papers outlining the data he obtained regarding the hissing static and the conclusions that he drew from the data. Two years later, he further hypothesized that the radiation most likely developed in interstellar space due to the thermal motion of charged particles. Interestingly, the scientific community seems to have at first taken less notice of Jansky's work than did the general public, which was made aware of the extraterrestrial radio waves in the headlines of the ?i?New York Times?/i? on May 5, 1933. Indeed, no academic or research institutions immediately followed up on Jansky's discovery, so that the next person to detect cosmic signals was Grote Reber, who constructed a radio telescope in his Illinois backyard in 1937 for his own personal use. Notably, Jansky had wanted to continue studying the radio waves he discovered himself and had tried to convince his employer to construct a dish antenna with a diameter of 30 meters for him to do so. Bell, however, was understandably only interested in the matter as far as it pertained to their communications business, and since there was no way to eliminate the hissing static, they considered the project complete. Jansky was, therefore, quickly assigned to new tasks. The University of Wisconsin accepted Jansky's published papers on radio waves as his thesis and finally awarded him his M.S. degree in 1936. In 1948 he was made a fellow of the Institute of Radio Engineers. Otherwise, Jansky received few official honors during his lifetime related to his discovery, which opened an entirely new field of science. He remained at Bell Labs for the rest of his career, and there continued to contribute to improved radio communications. On February 14, 1950, he died of a massive stroke linked to his kidney disease. His wife, Alice, and two children survived him. More than two decades after his death, the General Assembly of the International Astronomer's Union adopted the "jansky" as a unit of measurement for radio wave intensity as a tribute to Karl Jansky. Bell Labs later erected a monument to Jansky at the New Jersey site where he had carried out his groundbreaking study. The monument's dedication ceremony took place in 1998. |

They were married on October 22, 1966, and are the parents of Shelly (July 27, 1968), Jeffrey (October 7, 1970), and Jody (September 16, 1974). (Milligan, p 317). Obituary, Courtesy of Dennis Belohlavy, from Farmer and Son Funeral Home A Memorial Service for Larry will be held on Thursday, March 23, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. at Farmer & Son Funeral Home - Kotas Chapel in Milligan, Nebraska. Kim Dunker will preside over the Memorial Service. It was Larry's wish to be cremated and there will be no visitation. Memorials are suggested to the Milligan Fire & Rescue. Larry William Jansky was born on September 2, 1944 to William and Mamie (Simacek) Jansky in Friend, Nebraska. Larry was the youngest of five children. He married Diane Hromadka on October 22, 1966. Together they had three children: Shelley, Jeffrey and Jody. Larry passed away at Heritage Crossing in Geneva, Nebraska at the age of 78 years and 6 months after numerous health issues. Larry grew up on the family farm East of Milligan. He attended District #100 for grades K-8th and spent his high school years at Milligan High School. Larry played drums in the band, football and ran track. He graduated in 1963. After graduation, Larry entered the National Guard and served for six years out of the York Unit. Larry picked up electrical skills from Curly Kotas, and this trade definitely came in handy when remodeling. Larry worked alongside his father on the family farm. He took over the farm when his dad retired and moved to Milligan. Larry raised many different crops including milo, corn, wheat and soybeans. He enjoyed cutting hay and running the combine. Larry also raised cattle, hogs, and many feathered friends. Larry's dedication to farming and his family is admirable. Larry volunteered as a firefighter and was extremely proud of the new Milligan Rescue Unit. During his free time, Larry enjoyed watching his grandchildren play sports, hauling them around on the Gator and playing family games of wiffle ball in the front yard. This became a family tradition at every holiday, weather permitting. Some of Larry's favorite hobbies included having coffee with his friends at Co-Op, Ron's Tavern and HWY 141 Express, checking his cows, and watching CNN and old Westerns. It was a huge honor for Larry to receive the Nebraska Pioneer Farm Award for having land in the family for 100 plus years. This award was given to the Simacek-Jansky family farm established in 1915. He also received the Quilt of Valor for his years of service in the National Guard. Larry was preceded in death by his parents, William and Mamie Jansky; in-laws, Frank and Alma Hromadka; siblings, Leslie Jansky, Lumir Jansky, and Harriet Synovec; his brothers-in-law, Milton Synovec and Gary Filipi; and his niece Karen Umplett. Larry is survived by his wife, Diane Janksy; children Shelley Domant, Jeff Jansky, Jody Kerchal (Matt Kerchal); his six grandchildren: Mitchell Domant, Grant Domant, Kate Jansky, Cameran Jansky, Zoe Kerchal and Hudson Kerchal; his sister, Mariann Umplett; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and neighbors. It is clear that Larry was well-loved and will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and community. |

Geo. Yaus was a student. He read much, and in argument he was apt and logical. In conversation he was humorous, and in all his dealings he proved himself to be a man of good judgement and practical worth. Mr. Yaus was born in Germany in the year 1849. Losing his parents in early youth, he was forced to take up the burden of life in his teens. In the year 1872 he was married to Christina Benkelman and the following year they came to this country. Arriving here he settled down in the wilderness back of John Striffler's where he hewed out a home. Later on he sold the place and moved upon the present homestead. Last November, Mr. Yaus was taken sick. At first his condition was not serious, but during the winter he became weaker and in spite of all medical aid he finally succumbed to what has proved to be an abcess in his head. He leaves a wife and three children who have the sympathy of the entire community in their great bereavement. The funeral was held last Tuesday from the Evangelical church. It was largely attended which showed that he was held in high esteem in the community.

| 11284 | I28354 | Jensen | Loren Fred | 31 May 1931 | 26 Aug 2016 | 0 | Loren Fred Jensen was born on May 31, 1931 on a farm just north of Nora, Nebraska to Hans and Lillian (Kotas) Jensen. Loren passed away peacefully after a long illness at the Good Samaritan nursing home in Superior on August 26th, 2016. He was 85 years old. Loren was born during the Depression and farming was a struggle. His father, Hans, moved his family from rural Nora to a wheat farm near Delphos, Kansas when Loren was about three years old and then to Idaho five years later after Hans was told there were many jobs in that area. But Hans found good jobs were scarce and he moved his family back to Nebraska on what was known as the "Simic Place" before settling three and a half miles northwest of Oak where Loren would later farm in his adult life. Loren last attended grade school and completed the eighth grade at the Carlin country school near the farm. Loren went on to high school and graduated in 1949 from Nelson High where he played football and was a starting guard on the basketball team. He also loved the agriculture classes and joined in nearly every extracurricular activity that was offered. After graduating from high school, Loren joined the Marines as a Reserve and was called up in 1952. He was stationed at Cherry Point, North Carolina for two months, but his father's failing health led to an early discharge for Loren so he could return home and help with the family farming operation. On May 24th, 1953, Loren was united in marriage to Cloma King, daughter of Ivan and Luella (Kinnison) King of Angus. To this marriage was born three sons, Tom, Terry and Todd. Initially Loren and Cloma lived in Angus, but eight months after Tom was born, they moved to the family farm after Hans decided to retire. Loren and Cloma divorced and on May 2nd, 1980 Loren married Barb (Crouch) McLaughlin the daughter of Harold and Janet (Scroggin) Crouch. Loren and Barb resided in Millbrook, Alabama for nearly two years before returning to live in Edgar for a short time prior to buying a home in Nelson in which they lived 13 years. They left Nelson in 1994 to move into Barb's childhood home after the passing of her parents and that is where Loren called home at the time of his death. Loren had many interests and passions in his life. Number one was his family but a close second was all Husker sports, especially Nebraska football. In retirement, Loren became literally a world-renowned expert in increasing the population of Bluebirds. He maintained ninety-nine bluebird boxes, almost all of which he built, and it was not uncommon for him to oversee the hatch of 500 Bluebirds in a season. This led to Loren receiving phone calls from as far away as Canada with requests for his Blue Birding secrets. Loren was extremely active in his communities, serving on many boards including at one time being the President of the Nuckolls County Extension Board and the Oak School Board. Loren was a much sought-after master of ceremonies because of his easy style at the podium, deep speaking voice and his quick wit. He also announced many community events and was proud to be known as "The Voice of the Tigers" when he began announcing Nelson High School football games in the fall of 1966 which he would continue to do through the 1977 season including the 1975 state championship year. One of Loren's proudest accomplishments as a farmer was the establishment of a registered Shorthorn cow herd that grew from a single heifer to nearly 40 cows. It was something he shared with his brother, Eugene, who served as secretary of this business with the primary responsibility of coming up with registered names. After marrying Barb, Loren gave up day to day activity on the farm and eventually sold his prized Shorthorns. This allowed Loren to scratch off most of the things on his "Bucket List." He was able to spend two months each winter at South Padre Island in Texas where he nearly put Oysters--his favorite seafood--on the endangered species list after trying to eat all of them at every restaurant in the area. His favorite place was an eatery called "Dirty Al's" and one of Loren's greatest accomplishments was getting a picture taken with Dirty Al himself. Loren and Barb also traveled to Estes Park twice a year, attended all the Husker football home games and many bowl games too. They took several other trips as well including a trek to Las Cruces, New Mexico in 1986 to follow the Oak Softball fast pitch team play in the National Tournament. Loren and Barb were Oak Softball's number one fans, and rarely'97if ever'97missed a game. In his final years of being able to travel Loren really enjoyed going to all of Elkhorn High School's football games to watch his grandson, Bryan, play. Loren never got to attend Bryan's college games at Midland University in Fremont but remained Bryan's number one fan. He is preceded in death by his parents, sisters: Wilma and Betty and his brother Eugene. Loren is survived by his wife of 36 years, Barb of Edgar; His sons, Tom and wife Jackie of Nelson; Terry of Nelson; Todd of Oak; step-son John McLaughlin and wife, Jodi, of Hastings; step-son Mark McLaughlin and wife Deb of Elkhorn; grandsons, Terrance Jensen, Vince Jensen, Josh McLaughlin, Bryan McLaughlin; granddaughters, Kaela Baumbach, Abby Jensen, Amanda Jensen, Ashley McLaughlin and seven great-grandchildren; brother Darrell Jensen and wife Donna of Superior, NE; nieces, nephews other relatives and his many friends. Funeral services will be held this Monday 10:00 AM, August 29, 2016 at the Williams Funeral Home Chapel in Edgar, NE. Pastor Ralph Sturdy will be officiating. Family burial will be held in the Evergreen Cemetery, Superior, NE. Condolences may be sent to the family at wmsfh.com. (Courtesy of Dennis Belohlavy) |

Near Andrew and Anna's stone are three children's graves: George, Charlie and Annie. Annie could be the baby Maria Anna listed in the family Bible page, and George and Charlie could have been born in 1866 and 1875, filling in the blank spaces in the list of children's births. Obituary ANNA JESSE BOSSERT Mrs. Ann Bossert of Cassville, Wisconsin, was born in Germany, September 8, 1839. She came to the United States with her brother George Jesse in 1857 and lived with him in Michigan until she was united in marriage to Andrew Bossert in the year 1859. They moved to Cassville the same year and later settled on a farm in Waterloo township. In 1864 her husband was called to serve in the Union Army in the Civil War. During this time she remained at home and cared for the farm. She became a member of the Seventh Day Adventist church in 1870 and until her death she has been a firm believer in the faith she accepted. In the year 1892 they moved to Cassville where she has resided until her death January 16th, at the age of 91 years, 4 months and 8 days. Her husband preceded her 36 years. She leaves to mourn her loss 5 children, Joe A., Francis D., and Mildred, Mrs. C. A. Kirschbaum of Cassville, also Mary and C.S. of Mora, Minn.; nine grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren and one great great grandchild. She was a kind and loving mother and friend not only to her immediate family but also to all who came in contact with her. She was known in the community as "Grandma Bossert". In this community she will be greatly missed by both young and old. She was a firm believer in Christ, and his soon return to this earth to claim his honest and faithful ones; and she lived in the hope that she would have a part in the resurrection of the Just--By one who mourns. |
