But fact and proofed in many old Czech documents we have, is the name written Hlavensky. The oldest known ancestor is the forester Frantisek Hlavensky (familytree) from middle bohemia. He came from Markt Bischitz, now Bisyce. His wife Marie Wirt came from Muenchengraetz now Mnichovo Hradiste.

Their son Jan Krtitl (Johann), born in Markt Bischitz, was married with Maria Josepha Schlambor (origin Slambor, eventually written Schlamborn, Schlambora or Schlamber) from Muenchengraetz now Mnichovo Hradiste, Bohemia, daughter of Jan Slambor and Marie Sina.
