Here are a couple of suggestions; keep in mind they are only ideas. 1. Szentlangfalva -- Szent-Leanyfalva, Arad (Hungarian) = Sânleani (Romanian), which may be in the Sigmundsfeld area 2. Obalish, Romania -- no ideas, sorry. 3. Nemetzentnichdy, Hungary -- Nemet Szent Mihaly Szent-Milhaly (Hungarian) = Sánmihalu (Romanian) or Sánmihaiu, Deutsch-Sankt_Mihcale (German), Grosspetersdorf (Austrian) Try Torontál county. Good luck!

I ran all of these names plus some alternate spellings through Hungarian Village Finder and came up empty. I've found that the spellings of villages of origin on ship manifests is a challenge.

Dave Dreyer's web sit shows a Pflaumer coming from Neupaulisch and a Siks coming from Mokrin. I ran your town names through the Shetl seeker and it comes up with nothing. What are the peoples first names?
