I believe the surname you are searching for may be “Lajza”. I have pictures of several Lajza tombstones in the Javornik (Hodonin), Moravia cemetery including three Martin Lajza.
Another Martin Lajza married Elisabetha Hozak, a relative of mine, in 1864. A Jiri Lajza married Katharina Hozak, another one of my relatives, in 1887.
There are also two Jan Lajza who were both married to an Anna. One Jan was born in 1880 and the other in 1904. There is also a Lajza buried in Owosso, Michigan Hillcrest Cemetery.
Hope this helps.

The records for Javornik (Hodonin) are found in the parish of Velka at the Brno archives:

It appears that the Lipar (LaPar) family is also from this parish.
Best of luck,
