Notes

a. Given as “Roberts & Ballange” in reference [1], and changed to “Bellangee” by the editor (DM). There is a high likelihood that Bellangee was James W., and the younger brother of both of Roberts’s two successive wives, Elizabeth and Mary. A. Bellangee. James W. Bellangee was practicing architecture in Chicago at the time he was engaged to become the first drawing instructor in the newly formed fledgling architecture program at the University of Illinois, during the 1870-1871 school year. His appearance in Lincoln in 1872 as a partner of Roberts corresponds in time with the death of his sister, Elizabeth, in Lincoln, in April of 1872.[3][4] See Artemas Roberts (1841-1944), Architect, Lincoln, Nebraska, for more on the Bellangee sisters.
