No, not before 1759.
 
He was the second child of his parents and he had 11 siblings. Five of these survived to adulthood.

I’ve been thinking … What was Austria known for in that period? The first thing that comes to mind is of course music. It couldn’t be Mozart for a number of reasons, so I checked the great composer Joseph Haydn. You’ve taught a lot about him that I didn’t know before. Thanks! Thumbs Up
