I was already a citizen because I was under 18 when my parents became citizen, but I never got the paper. I could not find my birth certificate so I did two things. I called the Hungarian embassy and they ordered my birth certificate which cost me about 25 dollars. I also called the city hall in Balatonalmadi and asked them for a copy of my birth certificate. I told them I will be sending a relative to pick it up. They charged him 30 dollars and he mailed it to me. The one I ordered from the embassy arrived about 3 weeks after my call to them.

I wondered if the added  MOLNAR was the " farm name " ( a naming practice in Finland , some parts of Germany , Sweden ) where a family marries into a family with a farm where he becomes the owner through his wife and therefore , he adopts the farm's name to keep the tradition. Thanks , Nick , Joe , Laszlo . It's interesting as it only was in one parish /different priest that wrote the name in this style . It seems that the general conclusion  , in this case ,  it' s a name added to another surname to differentiate from many born with the same name in the same village. --- On Sat, 11/6/10, hungary-request@rootsweb.com <hungary-request@rootsweb.com> wrote: From: hungary-request@rootsweb.com <hungary-request@rootsweb.com> Subject: HUNGARY Digest, Vol 5, Issue 352 To: hungary@rootsweb.com Date: Saturday, November 6, 2010, 3:00 AM Today's Topics:    1. names in  Hungarian records (magda)    2.

As Nick said, Magda, molnár - in this case - would be a 'sobriquet' or nick name, to distinguish the families in the village who carry the same surname (was this entry by a new priest?).

Magda, Nick and Joe, I was looking at this website and the only thing I found was Molnar. Thinking to myself it has to be something about the name.

Hi Magda, It could've been an additional name that your Janos had, to help differentiate himself in records from another Janos Farkus in the town. It could have been his occupation or even a family name, like his mother's surname. I've seen both instances before in my research. Nick M.

Not to worry, Johanne, this time the list was quiet, so you could not have gotten anything else from the list server! :-) And that's why I'm sending this also to the list; you should receive it twice ...

Hi Richard, Do you know the counties for these towns? There are two towns called Tes and six towns called Tarkany. That might help narrow the search for anyone that may have the microfilms to help you. Nick M.
