Hi all, discovered not too long ago this web site: http://www.hungarianarmedforces.com/indexa.html Mostly Hungarian and as I was just glancing over it seem it has limited search functions. Joe Equinunk, PA - USA jjarfas@verizon.net

Hi there, Joe, hope you had a great time in Hungary! Wish you could've taken me in a large suitcase! Yah, still trying to figure out my elusive Bako ancestry. I checked out the Kemecse film and didn't find any Grofcsik names or Bako, so if there was a relative there, the name escapes my searching for sure. The two witnesses for the marriage in the Catholic church there were Namanyi Pal and Makkai Janos. I found several of those surnames in Nagyhalasz. They must've been there for a while since three bans were read for them. I'm tempted to reorder the Kemecse film and go over it with a fine tooth comb once again. I must've missed something. When I attached the marriage record you weren't able to read the name of Rozalia's mother. It was Rat Terez and I didn't find her in the Kemecse film either. Hmmm, think I'll reorder it and see if I missed something. Thank you for your always welcomed input. I value your knowledge so very much.

The Oakland Tribune California Aug. 11, 1947 Hungarian Beauty Takes Her Own Life Los Angeles Despondency over the fate of her parents in a European displaced persons camp was blamed today for the suicide of Gisella CSOMOR, 19, beautiful Hungarian girl who planned to marry an American doctor within two weeks. Miss CSOMOR came here to live with the family of her fiancee, Dr. Eugene L. MAC FARLANE, 26, whom she met in a refuge camp near Cham, Germany. She shot herself at their home yesterday. A note read "I can't take this life anymore and I don't think there is any goodness left in the world."

The Minneapolis Journal Minn. Nov. 23, 1901 Hungarian Patriots Now Living In Iowa Leaders Under The Great Kossuth Reach Hale Old Age As American Citizens Correspondence of The Journal Des Moines, Iowa Two men closely associated with Louis Kossuth in the famous Hungarian revolution of 1849, are living in Leon, Decautr County, Iowa, whither they fled to escape persecution when the fight went against their native country and Hungary was made a part of Austria. The are Francis VARGO, judge advocate general under Kossuth, who, in six months, condemned to death 260 soldiers and noblemen, and Ladislaus MADARASZ, who was secretary of state in Hungary for thirty years and who was one of the trinity at the head of the provisional government. They are now living on land which the government furnished them when they sought refuge in the United States. MADARASZ is 90 years of age, and VARGA only six years his junior. Both have taken an active interest in the affairs of the United States since their residence here and both have therefore served two countries, Hungary and the U.S. VARGA has attended every republican state convention in Iowa for the last half century. Both VARGA and MADARASZ are modest farmers, or were till age compelled their retirement. VARGA is quite feeble now and is confined to an invalid's chair during the greater part of each day. However, his mind is clear and his memory perfect and he is able to tell wonderful tales of the far off time when the fortunes of Hungary were at stake. In his story he speaks of the beginning of the revolution as follows: "My country demanded her rights, the emperor had promised them and we fought for them. We asked a responsible ministry, the abolition of the feudal system, equalization of taxes, extension of the franchise, freedom of the press, and complete religious toleration. These things we fought for. "Russian bayonets defeated us in the end. Terrible atrocities were committed. Children and old men were put to death and unborn babes were cut from the bodies of their mothers. Kossuth mader me his judge advocate general. Martial law had been pronounced and war was everywhere. The court was established for me. I was the judge and from my decree there was no appeal. Inside of six months I had 260 persons put to death for these atrocities. Within two hours after my decision had been announced the men were dead. "Hungary's general, General GORGEI, was a traitor. He laid down Hungarian arms to Russia because he was jealous of Kossuth. Kossuth fled, and all the rest of us followed his example. The Austrians began the search for the leaders of the Hungarian Army and we were safe nowhere. A price was on our heads. For eleven months I was in danger, while my country lay prostrate with defeat. At last I secured a passport from a lady, my cousin. Part was printed, the rest was her description filled in in writing. I learned from a doctor how to erase the ink with chemicals. I did so, filled it in for myself under the name of WAGGONER, and fled to Germany. "I went first to Austria because I had no place to go. Although my indentity was partially concealed, I was suspected as being a radical and was far from safe. At last I made my way to Hamburg, which was a free city, and I hoped to be safe. "There I was discovered. The police sent for me. They knew that I was a Hungarian. 'Austria and Russia will give us no peace if we shelter you. You must go.' I was given eight days in which to leave the city. "I traveled in Germany for six months staying a few days in a place; always afraid of being discovered and of being returned to Austria for trial. The Schleswig-Holstein war broke out and the Austrian soldiers came to Hamburg. I fled to London. Here I spent another six months and then came on to America." VARGA was one of the pioneers in the establishment of the New Buda Hungarian settlement in Iowa. Komorn, a fortress in Hungarian territory which had withstood a thousand assaults was at last surrendered by General KLAPKA of the Hungarian Army. The military governor was removed and in his stead a civil governor was appointed. The latter was L. UJHAZY, who was a patriot and rich, refused to serve longer as governor of Komorn. He demanded a passport from his country and it was granted. He started for America bringing forty Hungarians with him. He and his followers were the first Hungarians to arrive in the U.S. after the thrilling times of '49,. President FILLMORE received them kindly, and advised them to go west to Iowa. They traveled across the country from Burlington and picked Decatur county as their garden spot. VARGA resting in London after his long struggle in Germany to avoid Austrian sleuths heard of this paradise and hastened across the ocean. Thus was the New Buda settlement founded. Iowa was chosen as a suitable spot for location because of its mild climate and its anti-slavery attitude. The colony began farming, although all the members had been statesmen. Many of them failed, VARGA among the number. However, he stuck to it for thirteen years. Then the Civil War broke out and the band of patriots became as zealous for the new country they had chosen as for the beloved Hungary. Decatur county was the battlefield between free Iowa and slave Missouri, being a border county. A meeting was held in Leon in the early days to discuss the questions then in issue. "Slavery is sanctioned by the constitution," said Henry Clay Dean, a leader of the local democracy. "The constitution says we can have slavery." It was Francis VARGA who answered, "Let us have a new constitution then." For his services during the Civil War, VARGA was elected county clerk in 1864 and served four years; then he was made county treasurer and served six years; then eight years as a deputy. When he took the county treasurer's office his predecessor turned over the princely sum of $1.40. The rich paid no taxes and county warrants were worth fifty cents on the dollar. VARGA inaugurated reform and the county was paying dollar for dollar when he retired. He was admitted to the bar in Hungary in 1840. Leaving the treasurer's office he engaged in the abstract business at which he worked for fifteen years, turning the work over to his son as his health grew poorer. "I will die happy," he declared recently. "I cannot live much longer. I am a Hungarian, but I am an American also. I love this country. It is dear to me because we have gained here, in a measure, what we strived for and lost in Hungary. However, the revolution of '49 made 40,000,000 serfs free and abolished the feudal system. No one can better appreciated the freedom and the liberty of this country than I. I will die happy on the soil of New Hungary.

I'm going to toss this out to the list, because I can't seem to figure out why my great-grandparents who lived in Nagyhalasz would go to Kemecse which was at least 20 miles away to marry in the Catholic church and not go to Ibrany which was maybe about 7 miles away and marry in the Catholic church there. Neither Daniel Bako nor Rozalia Grofcsik were found in either of the two towns. No birth records were found in Nagyhalasz for them. Rozalia was Catholic and Daniel was not. Trying to get into their mindset, so far has gotten me nowhere. Any ideas, List? Sharon

The Pittsburg Dispatch, Pennsylvania Dec. 26, 1890 Where They Settle An Interesting Analysis Of Our Immigration From Europe Those Coming To The Keystone, Are mainly of Welsch, Hungarians and Belgians Immigrants colonize and are clannish, even in America. An analysis of their tendencies in this direction is interesting. The most industrious of those who do not seek the farms of the great Northwest drift into Pennsylvania. It is interesting to observe how the different nationalities that make up the stream of immigrants which lands on our shores have a certain tendency to cluster in colonies. This is partly due to a desire to associate with friends or at least with people of the same language and the same interests, partly also to the fact that certain places are better fitted for men of a certain class. Of course individuals of almost every nationality are scattered almost all over the United States, but still, with the exception of the English, Irish and Germans, who are about equally divided among the different states, the different nationalities prefer some certain localities. The Welsh immigrants, most of whom are miners, go chiefly to Pennsylvania, where their headquarters seem to be around Scranton. At this place, during the winter, Welsh performances are given at a theater. The Scandinavians generally go to the Northwestn states. The Dakotas, perhaps, get the largest share of them, although Missouri, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa and Minnesota also get a part. Few of them are skilled laborers or artisans, so most engage in farming. The Danes of late have largely gone to Nebraska, and the Finlanders seem to find in the forests of Michigan and Northern Ohio occupations and a climate which suit them exactly. Three Classes Of Italians The Italians may be divided in three classes. Those who are merely common laborers, and who come chiefly from around Naples to work on railroads, as street cleaners, etc., for a large part stop in New York or its vicinity; from here they are then sent by their bosses, or padrones, all over the country, wherever railroads are being built. From northern Italy comes a large number of miners, who chiefly go to the coal mines in Illinois or Michigan, or the mines of Arizona, Colorado and Montana. This class of people is of much higher intelligence than the first-class. Then a great many farmers and winegrowers from Northern Italy go to California. To that state also go many French farmers from the departments of Gascogne and Basses Pyrenees, as well as a few Swiss farmers. Otherwise the Frenchmen, if they do not settle in New York, mostly go to New Orleans or French Canada, while the Swiss, among whom there are many dairymen and silkweavers, chiefly settle in this vicinity. The Hebrews, from Russia, Poland, Austria or Roumania, for the largest part settle in New York. More than half of them are tailors, about one third peddlers and the rest are divided among the different trades. Russians, Hungarians And Belgians Of genuine Russians only a few emigrate to this country. During the later years a great many German Russians, whose forefathers about a hundred years ago emigrated from Wurtemburg to Russia have come to this country. They still keep up their German language, traditions and customs, and are all farmers. Most of them go to Dakota. They are large and powerfully built men, and when they come in their sheepskin overcoats, with a row of children following them, all clad in the same way, they form a picturesque sight. >From the Austrian-Hungarian monarchy come the Slovaks, Poles and Hungarians, most of whom go to Pennsylvania, where they work in the coal mines or coal yards; the Bohemians, who go to the vicinity of Buffalo and Pittsburg; the Tyroles, the Dalmatians, the Kroatians and Moravians, who generally settle in Pennsylvania, around Pittsburg. The Hollanders go to Patterson, New Jersey, or to Wisconsin, where their headquarters is Green Bay, or to Iowa or Michigan. The Belgians are either of Flemish or French origin. The former are chiefly farmers and go to the same places where the Hollanders go, while the French speaking Belgians are almost all either glassworkers or miners. The former go to the coal mines of Illinois or Pennsylvania, the latter chiefly to Tarentum or Pittsburg. Icelanders, Armenians And Greeks Most of the Icelanders go to Manitoba; there is also a colony of them in Sayreville, N. J., where they work in the brickyards. The Armenians of whom a good many have arrived lately, are like the Arabs, peddlers or tradesmen, in which case they stay in New York, or they are silk-weavers, and stay in New York or the neighboring New Jersey towns, or they are common laborers. The last named almost without exception go to Worcester, Mass., where a large number of them are employed in wire factories. The Greeks have during late years begun to crowd the Italians out of the fruit and flower selling trade in New York; some of them also go West and South, where they compete with the Italians in the work of the railroads. It may be safely asserted that those who maintain that the class of immigrants has deteriorated during the last decade or two have not given the immigrant question a close study. If there has been any change in late years it has been for the better and not for the worse.

Elaine, That village, Vadasd is now in Romania and it is Vadas. The original Hungarian County is Maros-Torda m. That Istvan Ruscsak went to Cleveland to a Brother, Ferenz. And he left behind his mother, Maria. If you use Steve Morse's search site at www.stevemorse.org and click on the one that says Ellis Island Gold Form, the first one listed, you can put in the name of the village, Vadasd, and you can see all the people that left from that village and it will give lots of information. You just have to explore. Actually it is Ellis Island but he makes it easier to search.

Elaine, looking at the manifest on Ellis Island it says he came in 1901. Vadasd was located in Maros - Torda county, Also - Maros District and today it is located in Romainia and it is called Vadas. You can look it up in http://maps.google.com/ .
