Here's a rough time frame for Johann:
"Johann HABERDA, active 1850-1879, Krumau (Cesky Krumlov), formerly Austria-Hungary, now Czech Republic. He took over workshop of Ferdinand Moravek in Krumau. Later he relocated to castle of Hluboka. For some years gunmaker of the Duke of Schwarzenberg. (Heer/Stockel)"
"Johann/Jan Haberda was supplier to the Habsburg dynasty and it would seem that he obtained this rank circa 1860..."
I just need to know more about that crown/W emblem...!
Thanks to all so far!
