Jamie,
One can only guess!
Did these people live and die in Austria?
Did they immigrate to someplace, perhaps America?
Where did they settle?
Anyway based on your suspected birthdate for Anton you will find a record found at Ellis Is for an Anton, arr June 17,1913, aboard the Kaiser Franz Josef I info as follows:
Holzer, Maria F 31y M Austrian German Unteraischwald, Austria
Holzer, Josef M 11y S Austrian German Unteraischwald, Austria
Holzer, Ludvig M 9y S Austrian German Unteraischwald, Austria
Holzer, Anton M 7y 6m S Austrian German Unteraischwald, Austria
As you can see they came as a family with 3 of the four given names as you mentioned but of course Ludwig is German for Louis.There destination was to husband/father Josef in Milwaukee, WI.There next of kin is listed as Maria's father GARTNER (no first name given)at there former residence Unteraischwald, Austria
There is a Josef immigrating on October 15, 1912 to Milwaukee whose wife is Maria living in the town she was coming from.
