His wife was Dorothea Wilke and her par were Andrew and Auguste Kamphenkel Wilke; she poss had a sister Elise. Their county of origin was Brunswick.

It would be great if someone has any info to share.

Thanks.

Dear Katie,

There is a large Flutka family living in Vitin, Southern Bohemia. Here is a birth record for a Matej Flutka born there in Feb 25 1852. It is found in parish book Sevetin 12, Image 86 in the Trebon Archive. This seems to match census records in USA, but you will have to locate his parents’ names (try death and marriage records in the USA) to confirm that this is indeed your ancestor:
