I have no idea where my great-grandmother Sali KOHN was born but suspect that it was somewhere in what is now eastern Slovakia because that's where my great-grandfather's MOSKOVITS family lived. All I know is that Sali (aka Sara, Czili) was born in 1846 (according to her death record) and died in Michalovce, Czech. in May 1924. Records found in the Uzhgorod archives refer to some males who were probably Sali's father or brothers. There is an Izsak KOHN listed as witness or rabbi to birth of one son in 1865 and Mozes KOHN listed as witness or rabbi to birth of another son in 1881. Does this help? Where is Gava?
