Also > some of the Magenheim family came to America and setlled in Milwaukee, > Wisconsin. Do you think there may be a connection there. > Chuck Schaefer Don't know your specific surnames. Probably 175 surname Magenheim bearers just in the U.S. 40 surnames Magenheim emigrated to the U.S. 1892-1924 from Austria, Hungary, and Poland (Galicia) Some had Croatian first names, some had German given names, and a few bore Jewish first names. There was also a family von Magenheim circa 1315 A.D. in Europe. It is not my surname, but do I think there is a connection ? Yes. Cabuna, Austria was actually Cabuna, Croatia and is located 76 miles east of Zagreb and 11 miles ESE of Virovitica.
