Františka Antonie Kajetána Kerschnerová, better known as Františka Stránecká (9 March 1839 – 27 May 1888), was a Czech writer and collector of Moravian folklore.
Františka Stránecká née Všetečková, was born on 9 March 1839 in Velké Meziříčí, in the family of the local burgrave František Všetečka.[1] She grew up in Stránecká Zhoř, and used the name of the village in her pseudonym "Stránecká" later in life.[1] At sixteen, she married Ignác Kerschner.[1] The couple spent their first five years in Berehove, then they moved to Uherské Hradiště.[1] In 1874, the couple settled in Brno.[1] Stránecká lived there until her death on 27 May 1888.[2][3]
