I found the military death record of my third cousin twice removed, Bohuslav Klapka. He was born 26
This is the URL http://vuapraha.cz/sites/default/files/kartoteka_padlych_v_1_sv_valce/K/Kj%20-%20Kla/ipage00137.htm I would appreciate it if someone could translate this record, not only the handwritten entries but also the the typed information on the record
Thank You
Kind Regards
Lou Klapka

Date and Place of Birth: 1892 Chroustovice, Mýto, Czech
Residence: Same as above
Date and Place of Death: 26 July 1915 St. Michele, Görz, Přimoři.

Also, you might find this interesting, but when I was looking up the place, I found this picture of the area from the WWI time period: https://www.europeana.eu/en/item/9200291/BibliographicResource_3000073493765

Hi Ellie,
Thank you for the translation. While the information on the card is sparse it does give a general location of his death and burial.
Thank you for the picture
