(This is a work in progress!)

- I believe Antionette was named after her father, Anton. 

- My mother's middle name is Antionette.

- Here she is on wash day with Great Aunt Betty


The back of this picture in Gram Rose's handwriting



Antionette was born in Cechtice, Bohemia


She was Bohemian - this is very popular now!


Mom said that Gram told her that her mother was an orphan.  Wondering about that, though, as I found census records from Austria of 1904 that places Anton and Marie Jadernik in Osterreich (Austria), Wein Niederösterreich.  (Parents names of Anton and Mary or Marie are on Antionette's death certificate.)

LINDA DO MORE RESEARCH ON THIS



My questions are where and how did she meet John Schury?

She came over to America in 1906 on the Oldenburg with Gram Rose, (unsure) and Antonio (click on the picture to make it full screen)



The Schury census records from the 1910, 1920 (John on top of next page) and 1930:






Antoinette was naturalized on 9/1/1927.  Note that she spells her name as:  Antonet Sury.


Sadly, she died on 4/25/1934 at the age of 59 of uterine cancer.



Would love to know more about her and to see more pictures.
