Josef Mandlik's father was called Wenzel b 1842 in Rakolus and he married Anna Rudek b 1842 in Wenussen. I believe that the part of Czechoslovakia they lived in was the former Sudetenland and that they were German speaking people. I have no idea where to look for any information on the family and would be pleased if you could advise me.
