The site below may not be known to list newbies. The message is cross-posted from the Austro-Hungarian list. It was in reply to a response to an inquiry about the location of Falkenau, Austria. I did not know the present Czech name for Falkenau. Felix Gundacker has an extensive site and it is well worth surfing.

The Czech name for Falkenau is Sokolov. I don't subscribe to the Austrian List. All of my family on my dad's side came from Falkenau (its a Kreis as well as a city, so there are towns within Kries Falkenau). If you still have the message, feel free to forward it to me or my email address to them.
