hliebling: lost ancestors

I have justfound out that 3 of my grandparents weer born in "old" Hungary. The 4th was born in Czernovitz.
Flors Klein (my paternal grandmother) was born in 1883 Oct 23rd in Lipto-Szent-Miklos ??district Szilagy-Szomlyo Her parents were Ignatz Klein and Netti Stern.
my maternal Grandfather evidently changed his name from Grun to Gergely and was born in Aszod 1875 Jan 25th son of Leopold Grun and Hani Stern.
Any help intracing these ancestors would be greatly appreciated. I'm fascinated by this database.
My mother had contact with her Hungarian cousins all through her childhood and until 1956 when we lost contact. I have unfortunately no addresses.

I know of a Lipto being Liptov region in Slovak Republic and Szent Miklos being Liptovsky Svaty Mikulas but now only Liptovsky Mikulas.
