The mother of Johann Fastner was Anna Maria Schmid Fastner who came from house number 27 in Fürstenhut before her marriage.
The father of Magdalena Hany Fastner was the deceased Johann Hany (Inwohner) of house number 9[?] in Mehregarten, a subject of Prince Schwarzenberg. The mother of Magdalena Hany Fastner was Anna Maria Schmidt Hany of Außergefild (Czech name Kvilda), house number not written.

Neugebäu in Kreis (county) Winterberg
is the German name for what is now known as Novy Svet in Okres
(county) Vimperk. Neugebäu was in the state of Bohemia (German
name Böhmen) in the Austrian Empire. An Inwohner is a person (usually
elderly or poor), living in a room of a house that is owned by
another person. They work for the house owner to pay their rent. A
Bleiber could be a person who can't work or can't find work. The
Fastner family was very poor because there was no work. That is why they immigrated to Bukovina sometime after Wenzel's birth in 1841 and daughter Rosalia's birth in 1844. Rosalia Fastner, daughter of Johann Fastner and Magdalena Hany, was born June 23, 1844 in Gurahumora, Bukovina, Austrian Empire.
Mehregarten is a lost town, a suburb of
Neugebäu in the county of Winterberg. Schwarzenberg (ze Švarcenberka in Czech) is the name of a Frankish and Bohemian aristocratic family which was first mentioned in 1172. The Schwarzenberg holdings included the following castles: Vimperk Castle (Vimperk / Winterberg, Czech Republic). | Transcription: Pag. 62 Tauf - Matriken Dorf Neugebäu [Baptism – Church book, town Neugabäu] [The town "Kaltenbach" was crossed off].
