Gerry: Gabos Family
I am trying to trace my Family history. My Grandfather, Ede Gabos, born in 1873 emigrated from Kolycsa to the United States in 1900. He died January 22, 1915, and the family as no idea of who his parents were, number of siblings, or any information except what I have written.

He married Irma Wolfe, who emigrated from Krompachy, Slovakia (Austria-Hungary?) in 1904.

They had a son, John William Gabos, born June 25, 1899. John William emigrated from Klukno, Hungary, in 1907. He came to the United States with Johanna Mihalik, age 48, Jozef Mihalik age 14, Anna Mihalik Age 11, and Janos Mihalik. The manifest from Ellis Island states the Mihaliks were his escorts on the trip and that his destination was to be with his Father Ede Gabos in Orbiston, Ohio.

I would appreciate any help or information on tracing my family and on any resources I can use to assist me in this endeavor. Gerry Gabos

lakatosm: Gábos család
Egyik dédszülőm, Gábos gerő nyomait keresem Bokaj-Alfalu (Erdély) a szül. helye. Örömmel vettem, hogy gyorsan megtaláltam, de a megye megjelölésnél az Alba név nem világos. Ez a mai neve a megyének?Köszönettel Lakatos Mária
A képen két Gábos leszármazott. Gábos Magda 96 éves, Lakatos Mária 64 éves Dédszüleink féltestvérek voltak és Gábosok

Janos: Re: Gábos család
Alba (roman) = Feher.
Tobb aga van a Gabos csaladoknak is. Szulofalumban (az Udvarhelyszeki Szekelymuzsnan) es a szomszedos falvakban (Matisfalva, agyagfalva, Decsfalva) is eleg gyakori a csaladnev.
Udvozlettel,
Janos - Erdelybol

lakatosm: Re: Gábos család
Köszönöm, kedves János! Igen, erről részben tudtam. Azt is tudom, hogy Dédapámék bokajiak (Bokaj-Alfalu)voltak és a gyógyi
ref.egyházkerületben volt az anyakönyv, amit 1849-ben feldúltak, a papot és a tanítót és még többszáz lakost megöltek. Dédapám akkor már Pestre jött, mert összeveszett mostohaanyjával. Édesanyja, Bethlen Márta korán meghalt.- így szól a családi hagyomány. Aztán Pesten mint szabó a Nemzeti Színházhoz került és ott, majd az Operában volt főruhatáros (jelmeztáros). Két felesége is innen (Pestről) a VIII. és a IX. kerületből származott. Sok gyermeke született. Többen a a Színházban és az Operában működtek.(Gábos Kornélia (Nelly), Katica énekeltek, Gyula ugyancsak az Opera jelmeztárában dolgozott feleségével, Hartman Máriával együtt stb. Ő idős korában húnyt el. Sajnos

Gerry Gabos: Re: Gábos család
What a wonderful, unexpected surprise it was for me to receive replies to what I posted so long ago. I sincerely appreciate the responses and the lovely picture, but unfortunately I do not read or speak Hungarian.

I am trying to find somone who can translate these postings for me, and look forward to reading the information.

Thank you, Gerry Gabos

Janos: Re: Gábos families
Dear Garry,
Here you have the translations (excuse my bad grammar):

I am looking for one of my great-grandparents, Gero Gabos, who was born in Bokaj-Alfalu (Transylvania). I am glad that I fixed the place, but I am a bit confuse at the name of the county. Is Alba the actual name?
Thanks, Maria Lakatos

On the pic you have two Gabos descendants. Magda Gábos 96 years old, and Maria Lakatos 64 years old. Our Gabos great-grandparents were half-siblings.

Janos (me) wrote:
Alba (Romanian) = Feher / White.
There are a lot of arms of Gabos families too. In my native village, Szekelymuzsna (from Transylvanian old Udvarhely Seat) and in the neighborhod villages (Matisfalva, Agyagfalva and Decsfalva) this surname is a common one.

lakatosm wrote:
Thanks, dear Janos. Yes, I knew in part about this. Also that my great-grandfather was from Bokaj-Alfalu and the Register of Reformed Church was kept in Gyógy, but it was damaged in 1849 (Hungarian Revolution), the priest, the teacher and other hundred people was kiled (by Romanians). My grandfather already came to Pestre, because a missunderstanding with his mother-in-law. As the family remember - his mother, Maria Bethlen died early. My grandpa had jobs at the Nemzeti Theatre, later at the Opera. He had two wives and a lot of children. Many of them had jobs at the Opera too. Kornélia (Nelly) Gabos and Katica were singers, Gyula worked at the Garderobe together with his wife, Maria Hartman. He died very old.

Janos: Re: Nevhasznalat
Ez nem is annyira a csaladoktol, mint a papoktol / kozjegyzoktol / neptanacsi titkaroktol fugott, hogy hogyan is irodott a nev, mint ahogy most sem rajtam mult, hogy nem tettem ki a megfelelo ekezeteket. Fontos, nem fontos a vesszo, a notebookomon futo Windows 2000 egyszeruen nem engedi telepiteni a magyar karaktereket...

Zlatica : Re: WOLF in Krompachy, SK
Gerry

Not sure if you have posted on any other board but here is an ALL site www.iabsi.com/gen/public
SK's phone book: www.zoznamst.sk
WOLF listing in Krompachy.
I do not find a village named Kolycsa.
Surprisingly 2 people from Kolycsa using www.stevemorse.org
Wrong manifest comes up for him. Being that the other GABOSs coming thru EI were from Krompach/Krombach/Klukno that he most likely was from the same area.

www.kojsov.sk
