Other Events and Attributes:

• Emigration: 22 May 1873, Czech Republic
• Intent: 19 Oct 1880, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, United States; Filed his Declaration of intent
• Naturalization: 12 Jun 1888, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, United States

Notes:

Naturalization:
Jan Chaloupka and Wenzel Honzik received their Naturalization/Declaration of intent on the same day. George Jindra received his two days later. Andreas Bouda received his on June 7th, same year.

Died:
No death records or obituaries found as of 2/18/17; Mary (Urban) Chaloupka, wife of son Thomas Chaloupka, died on December 9, 1896 of consumption in the town of Mishicott. Since Thomas operated a farm in nearby Town of Gibson, it is possible that Mary (Urban) Chaloupka was being nursed at the John Chaloupka home and an assumption could be made that John Chaloupka died of the same disease.

Cemetery abstract from website:

John Chaloupka/born/Apr. 10, 1831/died/Nov. 28, 1896,
(on the same stone with):
Mary Chaloupka/born/Sept. 8, 1833/died/March 16, 1915 (nee Svoboda)

John and Marie are buried on the east side of the cemetery, near the fence at the bottom of the hill. The Mishicot Cemetery and the Holy Cross cemetery appear to be one in the same cemetery. There is a dividing line but I do not know where it is. I believe they are buried in the Catholic portion based on other deaths nearby.

Jan married SVOBODA, Mary on 11 Jul 1848. Mary (daughter of Living and SLADKOVA, Maria) was born on 16 Jun 1828 in Zbudov, Czech Republic; was christened on 22 Jun 1828 in Zbudov, Czech Republic; died on 16 Mar 1915 in Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, United States; was buried on 21 Mar 1915 in Mishicot, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, United States.
