I am the great great grandson of Matej Vikturek of Lipnice, Wittingau, Bohemia through his son, Joseph. Joseph and his brother, Frank came to the US in April 1884.
Matej was married 11 Feb 1850 to Anna Jezvik. Anna died in Mar 1884 and Matej during WWI. They had 8 children:
Marie b. 31 Jan 1851 (never married)
Jan b. 12 May 1854 d. 22 Oct 1940
Anna b. 22 May 1856 (married surname was Pleh)
Joseph Nutricius b. 6 Mar 1858
Mathias b. 4 Jan 1861
Frantisek (Frank) b. 31 Oct 1864 (or 28 Oct)
Rosalie b. 11 May 1867 (married surname was Lexa)
Matej b. 20 Feb 1869
All known Viktureks in the US are descended from Joseph & Frank. Are there any Viktureks remaining in what used to be Bohemia? I would love to hear from you.
