Hello :),I am trying to find out about my wife`s family from Austria.T he family name OCZENASCHEK seems to be a rare one ,I have found 35 references to it world wide. My wife came from Graz Austria,and has not been able to find any details of her parents even though she has a death certificate from her mother.
There where 4 uncles when she left Austria in1971, 2 of the uncles served in the second world war for Austria,Iget lost in the red tape of the Austrian archives when trying to research any part of the family.
I hope someone can help me ,thank you, Graham

Thank you maid, all of the facebook Oczenascheks in Australia are related to us,there some 24 of them from 2 of my wife`s uncles. the rest including Anna are probably related because there are so few of them .
Thank you again for your message. Bradford

Hello, I am currently researching the history of the house where I live. There was a Johann Oczenaschek here in March 1928 and a wife Anna Oczenaschek in July 1947. They have lived in Aschau im Burgenland. https://goo.gl/maps/jgCVCHmBNhm
