Searching for individuals with the following surnames having ancestral
family connections back to the Böhmerwald towns of Markt Eisenstein
(Zelezna Ruda), Dorf Eisenstein (Spicak), Panzer (Pancir), Seewiesen
(Javorna) and Deffernik (Debrinik):

HILGART, WUDI, SCHMIDT, KUNDINGER, BRADLE, WALLNER, BERTL, GSCHWENDNER,
ESTERL, DUMS, BOYER, DENK, MIESBAUER

In the early 1880s twenty-one immigrant families from the Böhmerwald
settled homestead land in northern Price County of northern Wisconsin.
In the early 1900s, state approval was given to establish a new Town to
accommodate request made by these German-Böhmische immigrants.  They
were granted the opportunity to select a name of their choice for their
new Town and in keeping with their desire to retain their collective
name of "Eisensteiners,"  they named their Town "Eisenstein."

These links from Franz Lenhardt Jr., from Freyung, Germany

The city of Freyung: http://www.freyung.de
Mauth: http://www.mauth.de 
http://www.frgnet.de: a directory of Homepages of the region (the
"Landkreis" i.e. county/district of Freyung-Grafenau)
Finally maybe the most useful link:
http://www.meinestadt.de/Kreis+Freyung-Grafenau
Also a directory, but better designed than frgnet, with maps, hints what
you can do there etc. and a listing of towns. 

You can also try
http://www.meinestadt.de/ and after the "/" you just type the name of the
town, e.g. Mauth.
