Is Großzablat, Pisek, Bohemia, Austria the German name for Vělke Zablatí (49degrees08'04"N 14deg17'01"E) south west of Bilá Hůrka?
I have never seen Großzablat in the parish records I am researching in the 1700 and 1800's, but I do see Vělke Zablatí often. Could this alternate name be included as a standardized place? Modern name on Google Earth is just Záblatí.

Großzablat may be a village that is no longer in existence. What I found on the web for historical place names for Bohemia is that Pisek is a town in the former Bohemia. I suspect, as with many German place names, that Großzablat was a village or area within Pisek. My mother is from Germany, but when you ask her where she lives she says Zabo. Zabo is short for Zerzabelshof which is a neighborhood within Nürnberg. I hope this helps!
