Aliana: Iharosi
My grandparents are Anna and Laszlo(Les) Iharosy, my father is Les Iharosy II.
They all came to Canada in the early 1950's, during the revolution.
They changed their surname from Iharosi to Iharosy, for what reason I do not know.
Just wanted to post this, as I don't think there are many other Iharosy/Iharosi families in the area, in fact I think we are the only ones in Canada!

Zlatica : Re: Iharosi
Hardly a major change of the surname. Possible to do with pronounciation.

Aliana: Re: Iharosi
Probably, they don't even pronounce it the way they do in Hungarian.
Now it sounds more like EYE-HARA-SEE.

Zlatica : Re: Iharosi
You are correct about the pronounciation. I wonder why your ancestor did not change the I into an Eharosy. Might this be closer to the pronounciation.

Hungary's phone site is listing IHAROSI and IHAROSY. So than both spellings are acceptable.

Aliana Iharosy: Re: Iharosi
Yes, I didn't think it was very common and I'm very proud of the name. I told my father I was going to change my own name back to the correct spelling and he seemed very happy.

My grandparents, Anna and Laszlo/Les Iharosi and my father Laszlo/Les II came from Budapest.
I will have to talk to my grandfather to learn more about our family.
My grandmother was pregnant at the time when they left Hungary, so my Uncle George was actually born a Canadian!

In all of Canada we are the only Iharosi/Iharosy family.

Laszlo/Les Iharosy Senior
Anna Iharosy

Laszlo/Les Iharosy Junior
-Joshua Iharosy (my brother)
-Aliana Iharosy (me)

George Iharosy
-Maxine Iharosy
-Michael Iharosy

We are probably cousins!
Best Wishes,
Aliana

Ihárosi Timea: hi, I am an Ihárosi too.
Hi everybody!

I was looking for something else when I found you. My name is Tímea Ihárosi, I am living in Hungary. I was born in Pécs. Julliana I think you are my relative because my relatives lives in Barcs. Alliana I think I can help you later to find your rootes in Hungary. My grandfather József(Joseph)Ihárosi died, but a lot of Ihárosis lives nowdays here in Hungary. I know that you were here in 2004, but I hope you will read my sentensis too.

Unfortunately I have not learned the Hungarian language. I know only basic words like hello, thank you very much, and similar phrases.

Ihárosi Tímea: Re: Iharosi
Dear Aliana!

I just received the information from my family, that my grandfathers brother lives here in Hungary somewhere, only we dont speak with him(I dont know why) so if we wouold like to find our roots it will be one generation higher. My grandpas father has got 11 or 10 brothers and sisters. Maybe your garndpas father and my grandpas father were brothers, so they are cousins. What do you think???

It's a possibility, but I'm not sure, I'll have to check the next time I see my grandparents.
But I don't get to see them too often...

Aliana: Iharosi
Just an update:

Well this has certainly helped find some long lost relatives in Hungary. Here's an update of what I've learned:

My great grandfather was István (Stephen) Iharosi Sr., once married to Julianna Samo (my grandfather's mother). He re-married and had children so there are other cousins out there in Hungary too. I believe his son is István Jr and that he has a son who I have been in contact with named Gergely.

It has been confirmed that our surnames and both my grandfather and father's first names were changed by immigration when they came to Canada in the 1950's. It was common to "westernize" names back then.

My grandfather is Laszlo "Les" Iharosi/Iharosy Sr. He married Annaska "Anna" Herczeg and they live in the country south of Sauble Beach, Ontario. They have two sons, Laszlo "Les" Iharosy Jr. (my father) and George Iharosy (my uncle).

Including my father and my uncle's children, there are four more of us Iharosi/Iharosy descendants: myself (Aliana), my brother (Josh), and my two cousins (Maxine-Anne and Mike).

We are scattered all over Ontario, Canada and don't keep in touch much outside of the internet. Maxine and I are quite welcoming about keeping in touch with our Hungarian relatives so please feel free to get in touch.

You can find me on Twitter @ATaleOfToronto or via email aliana.iharosi -a-t- gmail -d-o-t- com
