According to the baptismal certification's official translate from 1940 he was born on August 21, 1846 in the 26^th house of Brünn (Czech Republic), and at the same day was christened by parson Francis (František) Žouželka in the St. Jacob church in Lesnice (photo).
(Brünn is the historical Hungarian and German name of the town Brno,  but I don't think that they traveled 75 mph with a newborn child... I could find with more months research that the right birthplace is Brníčkos (historical German name: Brünnles) 26^th house and this is a neighbor village of Lesnice.)
