Seeking help with Austro Hungary Bohemia
I am seeking records of my great grandmother Leontyna Müller, daughter of jan and Antonina, Polish death certificate indicates "ZINKÓW" as birth place, and family tales speak of Karlovy Vary as general area of "school years" I would appreciate any hints anyone could offer as what the actual name of the place could be and where to take the search Birth was dated 1899 June 27, gravestone on the other hand stated 1900 as birth year.
Thank You

@UlteriusGaull It might be helpful if you uploaded your document here and in the Polish genealogy group, if the record is in Polish.
@Mckenna Cooper I am wondering what you would recommend here, by way of figuring out the location, once the document is available to see.

@Annette Unrau Adams Pasting the document won't help, it's modern cetrified copy of a record held in civil registry and it's all it said, sadly.
I can fill the bigger picture though
We start with Jan Muller, birth/death places and dates unknown, who married in place unknown to Antonina Mazurkiewicz from Kolbuszowa (Austria, galizien, kolbuszowa) near Rzeszów and they had a daughter, supposedly more than one but again no details, one of them, Leontyna according to death certifficate born in Zinków and schooled around Karlovy Vary general area
Than Leontyna married, again, place and date unknown with a man, from "kossowy" and if spoken bits and pieces are to be believed it's the one near Kolbuszowa.... and moved to Vilnius.
Yes they are quite literally all over the place.
@Mckenna Cooper Thank You, I bumped into this one through treasure trove of family search wiki, sadly no record for father Muller in 1898-1901, I will recheck though and browse marriages.
For now it seems like a roadblock, maybe the birth record of Antonina will hold some additional clue to the husband, Jan, but those records are accessible only through FHC, 30-12-1863, act nr 45 house nr 131, indexed at geneteka. but there's trove ov noratial papers from kolbuszowa, maybe some clue can be found there.
Thank You for support :)

Well, mystery, not so solved but Bohemia eliminated as birth place in that particular case, a stroke of luck and an unexpected thoroughness on the side of one priest noting birth place in marriage certificate (what's left of it) puts the birth place in.....Z<damaged> Kamieniec Podolski....today's Ukraine, this complicates things but it's a start...restart
Thank You for Your help
