Since previously unmarried brides (those not widowed) customarily would marry in their home parish,
we concentrated at first on Horažďovice parish registers. We checked Parish register of Horažďovice
25, index to books of marriages, 1784-1854 but did not find reference to this marriage. As the indices
sometimes fail to list records, we also browsed the Parish register of Horažďovice 21, book of
marriages, 1794-1839, but again fruitlessly.
We therefore returned to Střelské Hoštice, to the Parish register of Střelské Hoštice 7, book of
marriages, 1784-1853. However, the wanted record was not found in this book of marriages either.
We then checked indices to books of marriage in neighboring parochial districts as follows:
Parish register of Katovice 25, index to books of marriages, 1784-1835
Parish register of Volenice 30, index to books of marriages, 1771-1833
Parish register of Velký Bor 17, index to books of marriages, 1790-1816
Unfortunately all with negative results.
It is a mystery where the couple married. It could possibly be in some special place (e.g. pilgrimage
church) or big city, of course with dispensation for the local priest.
