Try converting one of your PDF's to DOCX/RTF/TXT in calibre (a PDF to DOCX conversion may even preserve the links to the notes). Open it in LibreOffice, do whatever needs doing,
including linking the text to the notes, save it as DOCX, and then use calibre to convert the DOCX to ePUB. It's even possible you won't even need to use an epub editor.
I've used this process on thousands of simple end-noted PDF documents (using Word rather than LO or OO, but I have colleagues who use LO to achieve the same result), on many of them I only need to use Sigil to remove some of the entries calibre injects into the opf - and that's only to satisfy a personal whim for minimalism.
