Joe: Looking for relatives

My late father said that all the Scheiners in Hungary were related. I'm looking for other relatives of the Scheiner family, particularly descendants of Scheiner Peter (1828 - 1906).

Scheiner Peter was born in Csenger, but moved to Torokszentmkilos where he had thirteen (!) children. Among his descendants living today are authors, doctors, lawyers, professors and business people.

MadMagyar: Re: Looking for relatives

Scheiner is distincly German, most likely before that from Spain in the 1600's to escape the inquisition and who sailed into Hamburg. The "records" were chaotic as were people's immigration in a time when national governments did not exist. With the factorial effect of DNA mixing, famaily roots makes for a curiosity, but one bereft of any meaningful social history or relationship maintenance save for the very wealthy and great who kept some records.
