| Otsn: Re: Juliana Szaras | Zlaticia,
No I haven't received his first papers. In the 1920 census it says my grandfather immigrated in 1899 and applied for 1st papers. In the 1930 census, it says came in 1902 from Hungary and was naturalized. It doesn't give a language spoken, just that he can read and write and is from Hungary. He spoke English, but was more comfortable speaking Hungarian. I've seen the word Magyar on other papers.
My grandmother was in the 1920 census as alien. She came to this country in 1905. She died when my father was very young, so I don't know for sure if she spoke anything but Hungarian, perhaps some English.
The first census my grandparents appear in is in 1910. That says Joe Vargo was from Hungary and his parents were from Hungary. No names for the parents. It says my grandmother, Julia Vargo, was from Hungary and her parents were from Hungary. Changes in given names and surnames reflect the American version of their names.
