Rock Creek Farm, the homestead of Anton F. Sabatka, is one of the finest farms in Rock Creek precinct and its owner has gained recognition as an unusually successful agriculturist. He also owns other valuable land, and his holdings total five hundred and sixty acres. He was born in Moravia, Austria, on the 22d day of May, 1868, a son of Anton and Agnes (Hobza) Sabatka. In 1879 the family came to the United States and made their way immediately to Nebraska. After staying for two months at North Bend they located on a one hundred and sixty acre tract of railroad land on section 9, Rock Creek precinct, for which the father paid five dollars an acre. They at once erected a sod house, in which they lived for five years, and then built another sod house, which was at length replaced by a good frame dwelling. The father passed away upon the farm on the 7th of June, 1909, and the mother's death occurred there on the 18th of February, 1902. The elder son, Matthew Sabatka, an account of whose life appears elsewhere in this work, died on the 16th of August, 1902, leaving a wife and five children. Anton F. Sabatka was but eleven years old at the time of the family's removal to the United States and the greater part of his life has been passed in this county. He was reared upon the home farm and has continued to follow agricultural pursuits, which he has found profitable and congenial. He is the only one left of the family and has kept in his possession the farm on section 9, Rock Creek precinct, which is known as Rock Creek Farm. It comprises two hundred and forty acres of excellent land, the father having added eighty acres to the original quarter section. Mr. Sabatka has also bought more land and now owns five hundred and sixty acres in all, the greater part of which is in Rock Creek precinct, but one hundred and sixty acres of which is in Chapman precinct. He has gained financial independence and his capital is constantly increasing, as he is thoroughly efficient in his work and is always ready to adopt new methods if they promise to secure better, results than the old. His home farm is improved with seventeen modern buildings, including a splendid eight room frame residence, which he erected in 1913. Everything is provided to add to the comfort and pleasure of country life and the family find a great deal of enjoyment in their fine automobile, which has also proved a good investment from a business point of view. On the 12th of April, 1891, Mr. Sabatka was united in marriage to Miss Mary Krafka, also a native of Moravia. She was brought to this country by PAST AND PRESENT OF SAUNDERS COUNTY, VOL II 381 her parents when but a child and has since resided in Saunders county. Mr. and Mrs. Sabatka have twelve children, namely: George, born May 25, 1892; Frank, August 17, 1893; Stella, February 1, 1895; Mary, October 17, 1896; John, February 8, 1898; Rose, May 25, 1899; Catherine, on the 25th of November, 1900; Anton J., July 26, 1902; Charles, March 29, 1904.; James, April 4, 1906; Agnes, March 17, 1908; and Bessie, November I, 1912. Mr. Sabatka gives his political allegiance to the democratic party but has been too busy with the management of his farming interests to take an active part in politics. He and his family are identified with the Roman Catholic church, to the support of which he contributes. He has gained an enviable standing in his community and his personal characteristics are such that he has won the sincere friendship of many Contributor: Deano (50599775) son James Arnold b. 1906 d. 1993
