Josef Mohelnicky's home was at house number 69 (Dům čp. ) on the east side of Radniční street (východní strana Radniční ulice). English translation of the Mohelnicky text (in red above) by Blanka Lednicka: "Melan is not living anymore in 1815 and the house is owned by his widow Rozina, who sells the house to the local neighbour Josef Mohelnický in the same year for 2950 guldens paid in cash. Mohelnický owned the house till 1842 when it was bought by Theodor Hlawatsch for 1240 guldens." Note: 2950 zl. was paid in cash. (zl. = Zloty, a Polish currency) | Josef's brother Josef Mohelnicky at house number 69 listed in the book above is the brother of Vincensius Mohelnicky. In the 1825 Last Will of Vincensius (Vincent), he lists his brother Josef Mohelnicky as beneficiary. Vincent's brother, Josef, lived in Hranice Na Morave (Hranic/Mähren), and was a master cloth maker with children. Josef Mohelnický, drapery journeyman, settled himself in Hranice before 1801 when he married there. He was a son of Josef Mohelnický and Marie Anna Scharmová from Příbram – but this fact isn't mentioned in the marriage record, neither in any of the birth records of his children. We know that he was born in 1774 in Příbram, where his father lived. The whole family probably moved after this date to Prague, where one of the Josef's brothers lived in the house no. 1146/I (near the St. Peter's church in Old Town). We know about Josef's life in Hranice because of the last will of this brother, Vincenc. The will is mentioning Josef being a draper master in Hranice and the fact that he has children. Josef married Josefa, daughter of Tomáš Šlosárek, draper and burgher from Hranice, in October 1801. They had four daughters, Otýlie Barbora, Josefa Barbora, Antonie Terezie and Anna Antonie, and five sons, Jan Josef, Vincenc Josef, Ignác František, Karel and František Jan. The first six children were born in the suburb of Hranice and the last three in town Hranice itself – Josef bought a house with number 69 in Hranice in 1815 and his family moved there. ~by Blanka Lednicka, October 2009 |
