Summary - Frances Liska and Anton Tauber, Frances Liska and 2nd
Husband John Krtezius
Frances Liska Tauber, Krtezius is the sister of John Liska (Julia
Lhotka), Veronica Liska (Wenzel Wopat, Martin Pallan) and Anton Liska.
Anton Tauber arrived in the United States on Octobre 31, 1865 aboard the
ship Astronomer in New York City. He was listed as a tailor, and
the same continued on Chicago records.
Sometime before 1870 he met and married Frances Liska. So far I
have found no marriage record, but I am assuming this as their first
daughter, Rosa, was born in 1869 in Chicago.
Anton Tauber and Frances Liska would have four daughters, and one
brother (very little information on brother):
Rosa born October 28, 1869 would marry Emil Fiala on November 1, 1890.
They would live and raise their children in the Berwyn, Illinois area.
Rosa died in 1916, and Emil died in 1921. I have not been able to
find much information on their children.
Frances born September, 1872 would marry Albert Anton Sindelar on April
29, 1893. Their family would move to the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area,
where it seems other Sindelars were also living. I have not been
able to find much information on their children.
Henry Tauber was born on July 12 and baptized on July 19, 1873.
This is the only record found for Henry, so far.
Sophia born 1876, would marry Peter Teska on May 14, 1898. By 1910
they were living close to Frances Tauber and Albert Sindelar in Cedar
Rapids, but they would eventually move to and live their lives in
Montana. One of their children went to Minnesota and eventually
Florida. Their other child married in Montana, but child and her
husband died in the state of Oregon.
Bertha born September 14, 1879 would mary Joseph Kucera on May 26, 1900.
They must have moved to Florida early, as their children also have many
records there.
Anton Tauber died after the 1880 census, on December 28, 1880 and is
buried in Bohemian National Cemetery. Bohemian National is where
many of the descendants of this family are buried.
Frances Liska Tauber married John Krtezius (so many spellings of the
last name have made it difficult to track this person) on May 6, 1882 in
Chciago.
One known child was born to Frances and John.
John Krtezius was born in 1883 and died on January 8, 1884. He is
buried in Bohemian National Cemetery
Husband John Krtezius died on May 1, 1894 and is also buried in Bohemian
National Cemetery.
The 1900 Census record for Frances Liska Tauber Krtezius is loaded with
information. Three of her four daughters were living in the same
building, with their husbands and some with children. Her fourth
daughter, also married was living only a few houses away.
In 1930, Frances Liska Tauber Krtezius was living with married daughter
Bertha Tauber Kucera in Berwyn.
Frances died in 1931 in Berwyn. I am assuming she was still living
with her daughter Bertha. I am also assuming she is buried in
Bohemian National Cemetery, but I have not found any records of either
so far.
