Excerpt from the Patscheider Chronicle (written in 1988 by Wilhelmine Jarosch-Patscheider-Kniely):
Double wedding on 10.6.1902 in Braunsdorf
Antonia Elisabeth Rosner, widowed Schneider, marries Wilhelm Jarosch, Theresia Rosner marries Albert Krause, journeyman baker in the Rosner bakery. The dowry of the brides made it possible for Theresia to buy the Krause farm, which would later be mentioned many times, and for Antonia Elisabeth to co-purchase the inn „zur Piltscher Brücke” in Troppau, which had previously been leased by her father-in-law.
In the wedding party (second photo on the right), we can still recognize the following relatives today:
- From left to right, children’s row: Alfred Proksch, Milli Rosner, Josef Krause, Fini, Hans Rosner.
- 1st row: Aunt Mali (née Rosner), her sister Clara standing behind, father of the bride and brother Anton Rosner, bridal couple Jarosch, bridal couple Krause, mother of the bride Theresia Rosner, father Krause.
- Lady with hat behind Wilhelm Jarosch: his sister Antonie Proksch; behind the bride Theresia: Mrs. Böhnel, née Rosner, mother of Max Böhnel from Vienna and the two identically dressed girls to her right; between them Mrs. Rosalia Rosner from Aubeln, mother of Fritz, Max, Hans and Milli Rosner; her husband Josef in the back row behind the Böhnel daughter on the left.
After Wilhelm and Antonia Jarosch were able to purchase the inn „zur Piltscherbrücke” in Troppau partly with Wilhelm’s own funds but also with the bride’s dowry, Anton Jarosch, who had previously worked as a tenant, retired.
The Jarosch couple had to work hard together, but with diligence and business acumen they succeeded in making the inn a popular meeting place; partly for good bourgeois dining, partly for social gatherings, whether at large slaughter feasts or cozy meetings of local associations.
In the courtyard of their own property there were stables and coach houses, where the cab driver Pfluger kept his horses and carriages. In the adjacent picture one can imagine the situation at that time quite well: in the background the Jarosch couple with their first-born son Willi. Despite all their success, there were also severe blows of fate, as the joy over Willi, born in 1907, did not last long; at the age of 10 months he died of what was then the very dangerous whooping cough.
In 1914 World War I began. My parents leased their inn and moved to Braunsdorf. My father had agreed to manage the Krause farm since Uncle Albert was immediately drafted into the Austrian army. My father tackled this task with his characteristic drive and prudently accompanied various groups of Russian prisoners of war to work in the fields. They and the rural population paid him, the city dweller, sincere respect, and he was also made an honorary member of the Braunsdorf volunteer fire department. I started primary school in Braunsdorf in 1915, and despite war and hardship, I enjoyed those years very much. I always had playmates, and life in the countryside suited my nature well.
In 1916 we returned to Troppau. My father had to run his inn himself again, as his tenant was also drafted. It was a difficult time, there was hardly any food, and if one laboriously managed to organize a barrel of beer somewhere, my father and I had to bring it home through the city with a handcart. The usual means of transport, horse and cart, were in use for the war. The pub was literally stormed — for a mug of beer!

Excerpt from the Patscheider Chronicle (1988, written by Mag.a Giselheid Patscheider-Riedmann):
The Jarosch parents missed their only daughter very much. After they retired, they bought a small house in nearby Grulich, a small town located close to the border with the Glatzer Basin in German Silesia.

Comment:
All data are credible; the name of the mother is difficult to decipher, I believe Stawarz is correct, not Starwarz. In the "Ahnenpass" (ancestry certificate) at No. 15 the name is easier to read.
