Lets assume that Rhein might be a name of a town in the old Bohemia region /Czech Republic.
www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htmis locating several possibilities but nothing concrete. The town Reihen might have been heard as Rhein.
Reihen is Rajov and being North of Klasterec nad Ohri.

The name FURST lists in Klasterec nad Ohri's phone book BUT I have no way of knowing if that is the area of your ancestor. Even the name ASCHENBRENNER lists in the Ustecky obvod of the phone book.
