Laura : Magdolna Schimpf
Hi Lois,
Not sure if we're talking about the same person, but this is an odd coincidence. The records I have indicate the first name spelling as "Magdolna", last name the same. Problem is, I had been told by my family that she was married to my great great grandfather, Istvan Pfefferkorn. They all lived in Alsohomorod, Hungary and the timeframes are right...I have a copy of my great grandmother's birth certificate (Katalin Pfefferkorn) and it lists 2 names after her's, which I'm assuming were her parents - Istvan Pfefferkorn and Magdolna Schimpf. The date is August 16, 1889 and location is Alsohomorod. I don't have a birthdate for her (Magdolna), but your birthdate for "Magdelina" would have made her 20 years old in 1889 when my great grandmother was born. Weird, dont you think?

Hope you get this message - it's been nearly a year since your posting...hope you're still checking this. Thanks!

Hi Laura, we corresponded sometime ago, and in further 10 years after further research I have the 1st name spelling wrong, it was translated as Magdolna. I know of the Pfefferkorn name. So we are related somewhere there. Now do we have Magdolna as being married twice, since my grandmother was born 10 years after your great grandmother? I have also learned of a Pfefferkorn connection, with my mothers cousin in Canada. It seems her mothers maiden name was Pfefferkorn also. This is getting more intriguing. I remember having a grade school teacher (creative writing) who was a Pfefferkorn, and knew of our family from Hungary. I went to school in Connecticut.. any chance you know this teacher?

This is my grandmothers BC, translated by a very nice gentleman named Janos.
Dear Lois,

EPFan : Re: Magdolna Schimpf
Hi Lois
Yes I am still here however I am afraid I have not been able to devote any time to family research over the last few years. I hope to pick this up again at some point soon....hard to say right now.

I don't know of the Pfefferkorn teacher - all of my family emigrated to New Jersey and that is where I went to school as well. We don't have (to my knowledge) any family in CT.

I do however think there is some connection in here somewhere. My email address is epfan -a-t- bellsouth -d-o-t- net if you'd like to correspond directly. Apologies I cannot be of more help right now - just wanted to let you know I am still here :-)

Best,
Laura
