Just to let you all know, the decision was made to purchase cameras and associated equipment in Romania, because warranty coverage and repair will be easier done locally. The 'US' contribution so far amounted to $375; but have not heard the latest 'total' tally. With 'our' financial support we'll be entitled to quite a few record collections; none of the 'contributors' here have folks originating in Transylvania. Therefore I offer free records for those who actually want to look at church records from the available places photographed so far. Just let me know which places you are interested in and what religion's records; can send your request privately, so as not to clog up the list.

Hi Nick I would be most interested in being added to your mailing list. Kind regards from Australia Maria Mikolics

Hi Everyone, I'm curious if anyone knows what the ending -csik means on some surnames. Lately I've come across names like Szabócsik, that have the obvious Hungarian name Szabó with the -csik suffix. Is the -csik suffix a Slovakian form of 'son of'.. like the Hungarian version of 'son' or 'son of', which are -fi, -fy, -ffi and -ffy. There's also the variation -tsik. Anyone have any ideas? Nick M. Gombash nickmgombash@yahoo.com www.hungaryexchange.com

I am taking over where my father left off and would be interested in anything Hungarian. Please add Pat, pattwin0@msn.com. If you need other information please let me know.

Nick, a suggestion - post a message after a month or two about this newsletter. There are always new people joining and some people never saw your last post.

I'm writing today for two reasons, and I'd love to hear your feedback. I apologize if this is the second time you're receiving this email (to those I emailed privately!). 1) I'm interested in creating a mailing list for my website (Hungary Exchange), to inform everyone possibly on a monthly base of updates that have been made to the website, including new information, surnames, databases, etc etc. If you're interested in this, please let me know and I'll put your name and email address down on my list. 2) This is the main reason I wanted to send this email out today. I'm debating on whether or not to create a Hungarian Genealogy Society. I know you're probably thinking.. isn't there one already? Yes and no. I've only been able to find two and they are the Hungarian Genealogical Society of Greater Cleveland and then the East European Genealogical Society. There is no definite society devoted strictly to Hungary, and just Hungary (unlike the East European Genealogical Society which is all of Eastern Europe). I'm very interested in a semi-monthly or quarterly newsletter and anything else that others have in mind. Share your ideas and I'd love to hear what everyone has to say. :) Best Regards,Nick M.

sorry, misspelled danczak the first time. These related families lived in the Patton, cambria co. area of Pennsylvania. A few danczaks moved to Ohio in the early 1920's.

would like info on any of these families. These people lived in Pennsylvania, Patton area.

Hello Nick? I'd be interested in your newsletter.
