| Dobre rano Zlatica,
I beleive we have traded emails before,...And to my knowledge you are correct...In fact, per oral tradition and some scanty records, my Mudri/Mudri family is originally from Saris/Spis before moving to Bachka and Srem. (200 years ago). Now days they describe themselves as Ruthenian, but who knows, maybe 200 years ago a Slovak slipped in the bunch? I my case, based on some old letters and church records, they look more like Ruthenians..(i.e. they wrote in Cyrillic, Unaite Greek Catholics, write more like Ukrainians than Eastern Slovak dialect, and travelled to the US with Ruthenians).... All this reminds me that I must talk to another "Mudri" gentlemen in Parma, Ohio. He is from Croatia. I found some informal links between our two families...who knows? I am not sure about this family that "John" was asking about, he really needs to do a little digging. But your suggestion of the naturalization papers is excelent. I would just caution John to be careful about the census and Ellis Island records. I have come across lots of bad information in these in my own research. Paul | ||
