I would like to share with you an email I received from my cousin in Hungary this morning. While you will not understand or be able to piece together much of it, I thought it might be interesting to see how names changed through the years and how they revert back to the original. It also shows how families moved from village to village depending on their occupations and if they were "owned" by one of the Princes. In my family it was Esterhazy who as you know owned vast estates. It also tells you the influence the German people had in the language especially if there were German Pastors. People, did not always know how to spell their names and the priests did not always know either so they wrote down what they heard. We think of priests today as educated men..that was not always so. Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net _____ Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 9:38 AM To: Elizabeth V Cardinal Subject: Martinus I have found the parents of Martinus Tegyi! He was born : Okt.14.1797 Szoc, Parents : Michael Diegi, Anna Maria Prancs. (Prancsin or Pranhin). The marriage of Michael and Anna was : Apr. 12. 1794 in Szoc. Anna Maria came from village Csicso (Today Balatoncsicso). They had other childrens too , and they went to Dorogd, further childrens were born in Dorogd, and their name were in records of Dorogd : Tegyi. The people who later have name Tegyi in other villages, in Szoc were : Tengy, Tenghy, Teghy, Degi, Diegi. This comes they lived in environment of people who spoke german language. I think this Michael Tegyi is the son of Georgius Tegyi(b:1732) who lived in Dorogd and Michael had a brother with name Georgius. This Georgius had childrens in Szoc, I have found Josephus, Georgius, Florianus, Joannes . In Szoc was a Severinus Tegyi, he had childrens with name Josephus, Joannes, Paulus. They(childrens of Georgius or childrens of Severinus) will lead to Mopsies Jozsef Tegyi. To Bob : The Imhoff's were related not only to Roth's and Knoll's, to Tegyi's to. In Szoc was a Laurentis Imhoff with wife Helena Tegi or Teghi in 1760's-1780's. I have found in Szoc Imhoff's in 1748, Anna Knoll in village Halimba in 1777. Regards, Istvan
Jim, I have found 4 relatives by searching the hungarian phone book http://www.magyartelekom.hu/english/main.vm and writing letters to people with the same surname within say 20 miles of my grandfather's birthplace. I do not speak or read hungarian, so I wrote the letters in English. There was enough interest that they found a translator and we have been corresponding (slowly) over the past 7 years. None of my relatives speak or read English, but have found someone nearby to translate my letters. In one case a woman my age is now learning English. Also one of my first letters went to someone that was not related, but they knew the family and gave the letter to a person related to me. I have not had any luck with any message boards or emails....my best luck has come from old-fashioned "snail mail!" My family that I have found is in small villages where internet and computers are just now becoming popular. Hope this helps!

I have been to Hungary (on tours, cruises, etc.) which whet my appetite to pursue genealogy of my ancestors. I have detailed records of 2 of my grandfathers' families up through 1895.. but since they both left about 100 years ago the family ties have been broken. As I know of the actual villages, how do I make a fruitful contact with someone there? I do not speak Hungarian but have ventured on my own there and am not hesitant to pursue any realistic path. I have another opportunity to go, but don't want to wander around in strange villages trying to find someone to guide me. Have others found techniques to make the trip worthwhile? I am open to suggestions. Jim Lakatos
