Thanks for asking.

To answer your question, I went through the novel and every adaptation for specific information.

Most of the information I received was from the adaptations, but I got some of the information from the novel as well.

The birthdates, some of the birthplaces, and Count Andrenyi's middle name are from the 2006 video game.

But since the novel takes place in 1935, and the video game takes place a year before that, and these characters are supposed to be the same as they are in the book, I added 1 year to the birthdates to match up with that of the novel.

I forgot the source where Hildegarde baked the wedding cake, but I'm pretty sure it was from the video game as well.

I hope that answers your question.
