In the Austrian casualty list Nr. 599 14 July 1917 I found a reserve cadet Josef JAEK, 8th company, k.k. Rifle Regiment Nr. 13, who was born in 1892 and had reportedly been captured and detained as POW in the Russian camp of Troitzkosawsk (now Kjachta), Siberia.
His birthplace was Powel, Olmutz, Moravia. Powel [Povel] was a village at the southern outskirts of Olmutz [Olomouc].
In the parish register of Powel, I found this Joseph JAEK. His fathers given name was Franz JAEK, his mothers name Marianna nee STEIGEL. The subsequent notice says that Joseph seceded from the catholic church in 1922.
Since the first child Josef of your wanted Josef was born 11 July, 1923, he could have seceded in advance of his marriage. Since the secession was announced in the city of Olmutz, the marriage could have happened there... (his godparents were citizens of Olmutz). |

Troizkosawsk (rather Troizko-Sawsk) was a Russian fortress just at the Mongolian Border. The detainees lived in new-built brick houses.
