Not true - but close. In 1895, the Hungarian government passed a law that all records should be collected into a State Archive system. Of course, since the Hungarians were not popular rulers in Slovakia at the time, not every church complied very quickly <g>! I've looked at several films over the past 2 years, and some cut off in the 1880s, some in the early 1900s, I've had one go into the mid-1920s, and got very very lucky and found a film of the church that had my great-grandfather's burial record - in 1942! Bottom line is: the cut-off date for every church is going to be different. The only way to find out is to check the CD catalog at the LDS. Thanx, Paul paulochi@alpha.betac-stl.com
