Surname of bride and mother
I am trying to figure out the surname of a woman, Maryana, from marriage and birth records. I am pretty confident that it is the same person. The best version I have found is from her marriage record in 1786:
The original is here: https://digi.ceskearchivy.cz/2690/17/1856/1186/78/0. The best I can come up with is "Harfky," but that does not sound Czech and does not exist in kdejsme.cz. (If you can read the occupation of her father, Tomas, that would be a bonus. The town he is from is "Bitětice" in its modern form.
Here is the name from her daughter Anna born in 1791:
From her son Jakůb born in 1796 (here it looks like it has the -ova ending):
And her son Matěj born in 1797:

Thanks!

Maryana, dcera (daughter) Tomasse Hausky (this is the form daughter of, with declinations) the father's name was therefore Tomass (ss was pronounced as 'sh') Hauska. I am sure about that.
You are right,on her son's document she is called Maria [rozena (born)] Hauskova. Maria and Maryana are very close,in those days there were no fixed spelling rules.
I will try to figure out the father's occupation, which is less lisible.
Wishing you a lot of success with your research.

Thank you very much. Hauska is a surname for 8 people in the Czech Republic currently, according to kdejsme.cz, including 1 in the Jihlava area immediately to the east of where these records were from. ("Hausková" adds another 10.) So it is plausible from that point of view.

I agree on the surname. The father's occupation is podruh, a farm laborer.
