    Notes 
    • Sharon Nemeth emailed that "the marriage date for Agnes Matejovsky & Bert Redmond was 27 Apr 1920. They were going to live in Fairfax, SD, where Agnes was teaching and Vincent Janda was superintendent of schools at the time. Redmond was a local Fairfax boy, owner of the meat market and "Velda Theatre." Sharon further speculated that reason an article about her marriage was not published until the June issue of the Milligan newspaper issues is that Agnes probably in town for Vincent Janda's wedding. The article about Agnes stated that she would be visiting her sister Mrs. Posvar for two weeks.
