Otsn: Varga family
My grandfather, Josef Varga, was born in Hungary in March of 1879. He came to the U.S. in 1902.(Yes, I've check Ellis Island records-no luck). We have been told he was born in the Budapest area. My father says he did not say alot about his life in Hungary. He did say his family had a vineyard, raised black Arabian horses, made and bottled their own wine. He had 7 brothers and 3 sisters. We do not know their names. He served in the Crown Guard in 1900. I wrote to the present Crown Guard and they do not have records before WWI. My grandmother, Julia Nemeth worked in the palace in Budapest as the head pastry chef. She died when my father was 4, so very little is known about her family history. I've been researching since 1999 and no luck. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any suggestions? Thank you,
Judi

Varga Boti,
Koszonom for writing! Below is a translation of your reply a friend provided. I don't speak or read Hungarian, sorry. Where is Andrafalva, Deva and Bihardioszek? Does any of my family history sound familiar to you? Did you have a Joseph Varga in your family line who served in the Crown Guard (my grandfather)? We do not have the names of my grandfather's brothers and sisters, so I don't know if we are related to your Gyula. I would love to hear from you again
Judi

I am a Varga also. The family emigrated from Andrafalva in the 1900's. Then
they moved to Deva and finally to Bihardioszeg. The older kids moved on to
Bacska, and back to Hungary. I am the grandson of Gyula (Julius) Varga, the
youngest of ten. if you recognize your family ties in this please write.
thanks

Zlatica : Re: Varga family
The only VARGA in my family tree is thru marriage. My cousin's daughter married a Varga in Slovak Republic.

Possible that your Andrafalva might be Andrasfalva?
The town of Bihardioszeg is in Bihar megye / county and at present in Romania. The town of Deva seems to be in Romania and in Serbia.

Otsn: Re: Varga family
Boti,
Thanks again for writing. Your English is so much better than my Hungarian! :-)
It sounds like most of your Varga family (csalad?) migrated to Romania. Do you know why?
You mentioned the younger children (gyerek?) moved back to Hungary. When did they move back?
You asked my religion. I am a Methodist. My grandfather Josef (Jozef?) raised my father and his five sisters Catholic. My grandmother, Julia Szuras Nemeth was also a Catholic. What is reform? Is it refomate Jewish? I have often wondered if our family was originally Jewish and my grandfather left Hungary to avoid persecution. I know there are Varga's that are Jewish. That would be exciting and interesting to know!
I know very little about the family in Hungary except they owned land, had a vineyard, bottled their own wine and raised black Arabian horses. They did all their own work since the family was so large. My grandfather Josef Varga was born in March of 1879 in Hungary. He was in the Crown Guard in 1900 and came to America in 1902. We do not know the name of his 3 sisters and 7 brothers.
I will be interested to know what your grandfather says.

Kedves Boti!

Az én ükapám V. János tudomásom szerint Bihardiószegen született 1872-ben (felesége Diószegi Júliann), nem tudom hány gyerekük volt, csak azt hogy dédapámat Varga Jánosnak hívták és Nagysármásra költözött (Kolozs megye) ahol feleségül vette Linka Bertát. Egyébként reformátusok voltak.

Otsn: Re: kérdés
Kedves Boti,
I was wondering if you heard from your grandfather about your family history. Also the reformate church you talked about - is that Hungarian Reformed? I have heard of Reformed Jewish, but didn't know until recently that there was a Hungarian Reformed church. There is one in my area of the U.S.
I have had so much trouble researching my Varga family for the last 3 years, the one place I haven't researched is the possibility that our Varga's in Hungary were Jewish born.

Otsn: Re: kérdés
Boti,
I think you misunderstood. Sorry my Hungarian is so limited.
My father's family was raised Catholic. I only recently learned that reform can also refer to protestant religion as well as Jewish.
As far as I know, we do not have Jewish people in our family. but I have started looking into that possibility because there is a Jewish Genealogy site that has Vargas listed.
I have searched and searched for Varga family members in Hungary since 1999 with no luck. Looking into the possiblilty that our ancestors may have been Jewish is my newest way of researching the family in Hungary.
Thank you,

Hello:
Anyone have any information regarding Csepany (Csepari, Csepanyi)family from the district of Hevesmegye? Also from Eger city or area? The names were sometimes hypenated as the original family name was Csepany. My grandmother lived in Budapest and she also had a sister named Agnes(although I believe it was a given name when she joined the nunnery in Jaszbereny)Possibly her true name was Elizabeth. I am looking for connections to relatives in Eger or in Hevesmegye district.

It is possible that your ancestor could have come thru other port like Baltimore, Boston, Philadephia, Galveston or Canada if you can not locate his manifest on Ellis Island website.

Hi,
I am getting mail from time to time from radix forum, and this last one is giving me hope that I can go further in search for my ancestors.
Actuali my grandfather is born in Andrasfalva-Bukovina in 1894 september 26th. His father was Jozeph Varga (Anna-mother) and his mother was Veronika David (child of Joseph and Roza Sebesteny) also from Andrasfalva.
Also I have information from "Testimonium ortus & baptismi".
Number is 360/II, book # IX, page 49 #71, also house where they lived is # 24 and baptism was on september 29th. 1894., and the prist name was J.Kubafsek.
I can't go further and if you can help me anyway, to find my ancestors further, maybe even far as is Madefalva in 1774?
Can you please take a look in church records which you have and give some information?
Thanks!

Beth Long: Bukovina and Deva
Hello Laszlo,

Saw your post; For about five years (together with a Hungarian researcher), I've been working on a database of Bukovina Szekely and their descendants. Our database now has over 30,000 people in it.

Laszlo Rudolf, my Hungarian friend and colleague, has a special interest in the Szekely who migrated to Vojvodina, and has made many research trips there.

Later this year, we are hoping to make a trip to Deva and start entering the data of the 600 families who settled there.

You can contact me at bethlong3 -a-t- yahoo -d-o-t- com or Laszlo Rudolf at rlaszlo@freemail.hu.

Minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi:
Actually, I have seen some artist drawings of Budapest in the 1800's and they showed people tending to their vineyards. The castle was in the background on the hill so I am thinking they were in a different district than the actual castle. Each 'district' usually kept their own records. I myself was born in the Rakospalota district which would be on the OTHER side of the Danube. I am assuming some of the areas around what is now Budapest were later annexed to the city as was Rakospalota. The area you are looking at near the castle which is still there, would probably be the old Buda area, such as Janoshegy etc.

Minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi:
As you mentioned your family worked in the castle itself and as one of the guards. My guess would be they must have lived in the area near the castle as commuting was not that easy back in those days except by carriage or horseback. Perhaps you could do a search for some old maps of Budapest. It is sad that people move and looze touch with family, which is why I try to keep in touch with my relatives in Budapest. My mother's family was from the Eger/Hevesmegye area and she died in 1991 (in Budapest) and my brother in 1995, and most of her family are deceased also. So it is a bit difficult to track her side of the family. My great aunt who died in 1978 was a great family historian. She lived in a convent in Jaszbereny, and even with my information on hand it is still very difficult finding information about the cousins I used to correspond with in my youth. I wish you luck, but it can be discouraging sometimes.

Minera: Re: kérdés
Hi
The Hungarian Reform church was/is a protestant religion, not affiliated with the Jewish religion. My mother was Catholic and my father belonged to the Reformatus church when they married. I was baptized in the Reformatus church in the Rakospalota district, but later converted to the Catholic religion. When I married my husband who is also Catholic, I received copies of both of my baptism certificates from Budapest. There are still church records that would probably help find information as to who was baptised and when, including godparents (as in my case)although most birth records are probably kept by the main government offices.

Hi Judi:
If your grandfather was Reformatus he was not Jewish but protestant. Varga is a very common name in Hungary, so that makes it all the more difficult to find information. If you have a birth place the LDS site has a lot of information you can probably access for birth/baptism/death records in all religions in Hungary. Good luck in your search :)

Minera,
Thank your for all your replies! There's a wealth of information in them.
My grandfather and grandmother were actually raised Catholic, as was my father. Where in Budapest could I get their baptism or birth records. I have no idea which district in Budapest they are from. I have been to the LDS site many times and do not remember birth/baptism/death records for Hungary. Is there a link?
Like you said, Varga is a very common name in Hungary and the search can be very discouraging. I haven't done much since my father died, but I want to get back to it. Again, thanks for your kind information.

Hi Judi:
You say your grandparents were raised Catholic? If they were born in Hungary, and baptised there the records would be kept by the church where they were baptised. Another question. When did they leave Hungary? Under the communist regime everyone had and identification number and a book
' szemelyi igazolvany' that they carried with them. They have numbers in them. If they left after the papers were mandatory the birth place could be easily traced, as would parent's names etc. I am just wondering. I will look into the other question of birth certificate information for Budapest, but most of the records would probably be archived before certain years. I will get back to you though. Good luck

Hi Bill:
I was born in Rakospalota. I am not sure of the exact street address as those areas were torn down and replaced with tenement appartment buildings. My grandmother who died in 1989, lived just west of the tenement apartments on Oroszlany utca (which is also scheduled to be torn down)The street itself was very narrow.My mother moved to Szocs Aron Utca, and lived there until she died in 1991. Unfortunately, Rakospalota is a huge place so I probably do not know the persons whom you are referring to. I have heard of Kemeny Istvan utca.

Hi Judi:
The Castle District or Varnegyed is in the Buda part of Budapest. The castle is situated on Castle Hill. The original castle itself was destroyed by the Turks, and the rest during the war. There isn't much left of the original castle itself, and now it houses government offices etc. The district that area is in is called Nagyteteny or (XXII district)
I am not sure if the birth records are kept past last 100 years or not, but usually kept by local area churches in those districts, if they are older. The main record office is called 'Anyakonyvi hivatal' but I don't know the address for that off hand. I will try and find which diocese is located in that area. If they were born around that district, which was probably the outskirts of the city at that time, and they married in a Catholic church there (being both Catholic)those records are most likely in the church. The LDS church did microfilms of all the records kept by the various churches, and they are usually detailed. But if you are looking for a particular person, it is helpful to know the area, the dates etc. Also, the names could have been changed. I know they changed the street names after the communist regime left. My brother lived on Liptak Lajos utca, and that street name was changed to Szegfu utca.
Was your father born in Hungary? If his parents were there should be some sort of record of their names or birthdates. You can try searching for those names in the LDS files. I wish I had listened more closely to my great aunt's stories. She was a family historian of sorts (also a Catholic nun)living in Jaszbereny in the convent there. I do know my mother had a cousing who was a singer her name was Sarosi Kati, and I heard many funny stories about HER childhood etc.I also get frustrated since most of my immediate family on my mother's side have died, and no one to get the information I need to find relatives of a distant cousing who lived in Linz, Austria. I am making a scrapbook of all the family history that I DO have access to, including my birth certificate, my mothers's papers and that of my brother, along with photographs. Maybe that would help my children or their children in family history. On my father's side, the search is easier since I still have uncles and cousins living in Budapest.

Minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi:
Just checking back on the info about your grandparents. Your grandmother worked at the castle as head pastry chef. It is possible there was a restaurant of sorts there after the reconstruction. The castle was rebuilt by the Austrian monarchy, but was destroyed during the war. As you have the date of birth for your granfather, it is likely he is registered in Catholic church records as they keep those for hundreds of years. Unfortunately with Ellis Island records many immigrants could not speak English so names could have been written down incorrectly. Did you try looking for Warga, or even Josef?? In Hungary the names are last names first then given names, which would confuse some immigration officials. I have heard it happen a few times from others. Its worth a try. If they asked him for his name he would have said Varga Jozsef, NOT Josef Varga as we would assume.

Hi Judi:
Hope im not being annoying. I did a check on Ellis island records and came up with several Josef Varga 's who came at that year. Adding up the numbers he would have been 21 when he worked for the crown guard. Also the closest was a Josef Varga, married age 28. I did not see the original manifest itself, but if your father was 4 when your grand mother died and he left Hungary or was born there, he would have been older. There was no record of a Julia Horvat listed. Also the age 23 and 28 are similar enough to assume there could be an error in the writing or maybe it was not legible? Just doing my detective work LOL. Did he mention how old he was when he arrived in the US? Did your father come with him or was he born here? Did his wife also come with him or did she use a different name perhaps her maiden name? Just wondering, as some of those old records are not that accurate.

My great grandfather Antal Krecsmar came to the US in 1905 and according to Ellis Island the person he was joining was his brother in law Gusztav Varga in Columbus Ohio. I was checking out this site to see if anyone had posted regarding Gusztav Varga and saw your post. I saw on SSDI site a Joseph Varga that was born 3/13/1887 and died August of 1967 in Braddock PA. Could this be your grandfather? Do you have a copy of his death certificate? This will usually list his parents names. What about a copy of his death notice. Have you tried to get a copy of his marriage certificate to your grandmother? Do you have a copy of her death notice? Her death certificate? Did she die in Cleveland Ohio? If she did die in Cleveland Ohio I can see if I can get her death certificate and death notice for you if you do not live in Ohio. I could email you copies. The Ohio Historical Library has copies of death certificates from 1908 to 1944. According to OHS search there is a Julia Varga that died 10/08/1921. Let me know if you think that any of this helps you.

My grandfather, Joseph Vargo/Varga was born in Hungary on March 19, 1879 and died in November 15, 1967 in southern Ohio. I believe my grandmother, Julia Vargo died in 1923. My father was about 4 years old when she died.
About a week before my father died, we found my grandparents marriage certificate. They were married on Nov. 1, 1908 in southern Ohio. Her maiden name on the certificate was Szuras. I think her stepfather was a Nemeth. Her birth father died.
I do have my grandfather's SSN Death record. His mother's name was unknown, his father's name was listed as "Barney" Varga. My guess is the person taking the information did not understand my grandfather's accent and just wrote Barney.
I do not have copies of death certificates or death notices for either one of my grandparents. How do you get copies from the Ohio History Library?
My grandparents settled in the Athens, Ohio area, which is not far from Columbus. Maybe there is a connection? My grandfather and my father and sisters did live in Cleveland, Ohio area (Fairport Harbor) for a time. My Dad loved the lighthouse up there. I live closer to Dayton, Ohio. You did help giving me ideas to look for death certificates.

Thanks for your reply. My grandfather was Josef Varga and my grandmother was Juliana Nemeth. She was born in Budapest in 1875. My grandmother's birth father's name I believe was Szuras. The Nemeth surname was her stepfather. Some in our family think it was the other way around, but who knows! She was the head pastry chef in the Palace in Budapest. We are not sure when she came to the U.S.
My grandfather had 7 brothers and 3 sisters and we think he was born in Budapest in 1879. We do not know the brother or sisters names. They had a vineyard, raised horses and bottled their own wine. He served in the Crown Guard in the Palace in Budapest. My grandfather came to the U.S. in 1902. He settled in Ohio and married my grandmother. They had 5 children, Julia, Betty, Rose, Goldy and Frank (my father) Vargo. Name was changed from Varga to Vargo in the U.S.
I would be glad to help you in any way. I have been searching since 1999 with no luck. Does any of the family histroy I gave sound familiar to you?

andre mommen: Re: Varga family
Dear,
This story sounds very strange. Serving in the horse guard means that the person had a "noble" background. And his wife worked in the pastry department (the kitchen)? Varga, a very common name, means "shoemaker". And Nemeth, also very common, means "German". It seems to me that both persons were of popular origins. Maybe that father Varga was a "horseman" responsible for breeding etc. People of the nobility usually did not emigrate to the US. Maybe that this Varga had adopted this Hungarian name in order to assimilate faster.

minera: Re: Varga family
Hello:
Why would serving in the horse guard be considered elite?
Are you suggesting they were simply simbolic? Such as the British have for their royalty? Many of those guards themselves are not of 'noble' birth but representatives of different parts of the Commonwealth, such as the Scots , the Irish the Welsh. They are distinguished by their uniforms and various tartans.
According to Judy her grandfather worked at the castle as a royal guard.
It is possible he did so at the time it was rebuilt by Marie Terese of the Hapsburgs.The castle itself was completely destroyed after the Turkish invasion and the ruins were leveled and she built a castle on the site. None of the Hapsburg royals ever actually LIVED at the castle, only their representative the viceroy. It is possible during this time her granfather lived or worked there. When the Hapsburg dynasty fell Admiral Horty lived there for a short time until he was removed in a coup by the Germans in 1944. During WWII the castle was completely devastated during the siege of Budapest. What we see today is a reconstruction done in the 50's and it now houses a museum of the arts and a library etc.
I am not sure what your reference to 'nobility' means. The royal guards were NOT nobility unless you are referring to the time of Queen Beatrice before the Turks invaded.
Judging from the timeline she suggest as to when her granfather came to the US, it would appear he worked there before the Hapsburgs were removed during the revolution against them by Hungarians. Both the Royal guards and the horse guards were simbolic. Also after the break with Austria all Hungarian noble titles given previously were revoked.With communism even land ownership became property of the state.
Yes Varga means shoemaker, and Nemet refers to perhaps an ancestor of German origin where the name originated. As is Komaromi (from Komarom)Szabo(tailor)Kovacs(smith)but no LESS a Hungarian name than Nemeth. There was no NEED to assimilate since both were Hungarians.

Hello Judi:
Once again back to your grandparents history. The time line of your grandfather working in the Crown Guard was probably close to the time of the fall of the Hapsburgs and the split from Austria and probably just before the castle itself was destroyed. Contrary to what the previous poster suggested, crown guards were not of noble birth. As horses for modes of transportation and show were more prevalent it is not surprising he raised horses. My own grandfather used the same means of transportation. Actually even in the 50's many people used horse drawn carts to take things to market. He had a small vineyard which was also common as many made their own wine, and palinka even my father's father although he purchased the grapes and plums and he lived in Budapest. He was born in 1895 so such means of transport were not uncommon.

Otsn: Scam
I got a letter from a Barrister Alvin Mawuri claiming to be the lawyer for a deceased relative of mine, Samuel P. Varga. "Barrister Alivn Mawuri" claims he was in charge of my "relative's estate" and wanted to know what percentage he of the estate he would receive for helping me claim my "inheritance". He would then deposit it in a "designated account."
I went to other Hungarian web sites that I post on and found the same man had sent a letter to others, of course, the Samuel P. had another last name.
This person or persons is probably preying upon websites like this trying to cash in.

minera: Re: Scam
Hi Judi
Sounds like a common scam. There are too many creeps out there preying on unsuspecting people. No one should ever do business with any of them via email or any other. If the documents are legitimate most embassies will refer you to proper sources. If an estate is left behind by a deceased relative one can hire their own personal lawyers to look into the details and they are more knowledgable than the average person. First of all if he is the lawyer of the deceased 'relative' the particulars are usually set up in a will. When it comes to claiming any inheritance the local governments are usually involved as they want to make sure THEY get the first share of what assets and taxes of those assets are applicable. If it is legal best to contact the local embassy first and foremost and they will try to verify if anyone is actually searching where claims are filed. An executor of an estate is usually working along with the banks the deceased dealt. Most assets are automatically frozen and even the 'executor' of such wills is only allowed acess to funds at their discretion and the government's revenue agencies are the first to be notified. I think he was watching too many movies. Claiming an inheritance or being executor often involves a great deal of paperwork most information is sent to the beneficiaries as legal document notices NOT via an email such as he suggests. Its a scam for sure unless you receive information otherwise through a legitimate agency such as a bank or a government office from the deceased's country and usually through a lawyer. I many cases claiming an inheritance is often costly to the beneficiaries depending on taxes due at time of death any outstanding claims made against the estate such as creditors etc. All the costs are usually verifiable if legitimate and in most countries it is illegal to charge fees such as he suggests considering if the person died his estate would belong to the state unless living beneficiaries are found. THAT is done through legal channels with verifiable documents which the local embassies can obtain for you usually for a small fee. I cannot believe they are still using the same scam. Usually those 'persons' are claiming they are in some country like Uganda etc and propose to help you claim what is yours for an upfront fee. That is not how such things are done in real life.

ATTA Girl Judy
Those creeps will try any ruse to get unsuspecting people to fall for their scams. Geneology researchers usually are more interested in finding their ROOTS, not very likely most or any of us expect an inheritance as a bonus! They are using their mindset in trying to lure people to give them easy cash thinking that is all everyone is interested in. Don't give up trying to find your relatives or ancestors. Good luck

My grandmother was Maria Varga and according to the manifest it states she came from BAKONYSZENTLASZLO, however a very wonderful man who lives in Hungary went to that village to see if he could find any info on her and was unable. This is the following information which was in her Bible...which I have::
Varga Erzsebet 1892 January 8 Varga Istvan first of October Janos Varga 1898 July 31 Varga Margit 1905 February 19. I also know that Varga Istvan was born in BAKNOYSZENTLASLO 20 of December 1896 and passed away 1972 according to the Mother-book of the deaths. His parents were Varga Janos and Nemeth Zsofia...also Varga Gyula born same village on 20th of March 190? and died 12 September 1909. At this point in time I can only believe that my grandmother was not born in this village like her bothers and sisters. I also believe that Varga Janos and Nemeth Zsofia were born in this village. Looking for any info on my family. I have spoke with Judi Ostn and Lajos Reich. I do not read or write Hungarian, I live in Michigan..USA. Thank you to any or all who have any info or suggestions leading to finding my family. My grandmother came to the US in 1899, married my grandfather Lajos Tamas in Pennsylvania in 1905 and passed away in 1919, parents were Janos Varga and Zsofia Nemeth...and that's all I know about her.

Zlatica : Varga
Shirley

I looked on Maria VARGA's Ellis Island manifest. She does have a set of numbers and a date 12/16/39. Were you able to get her naturalization petition. She was naturalized citizen. Those forms would have her place of birth. If she had social security numbers than again that form should have some information.

Hello Judi,

Sorry to hear this, and thanks for bringing it up here.

An other poster on this site sent a private email to me reporting the same scam. I'm now trying to address the thing and looking what I can do.

Do you still has this email? Could you send it to me with full email headers, to janos -a-t- bogardi.com?

minera: Re: Scam
Hi Janos
These sort of scam emails have shown up repeatedly in emails from different sources always claiming they either have a large amount of funds they want to take out of the country as the person/s who are their relatives have died etc. They want banking information to 'transfer' large amounts of the sums to YOUR account and promise to SHARE some with you for allowing them to do so. I received several when they first appeared on the internet several years ago and contacted the local police. They said it was a scam where they wanted your banking information to hack into your bank accounts. Under NO circumstances should anyone give such information out. They also received notices that the same stuff was sent to companies via fax and most up until the last few years were predominantly in the USA and Canada. They would spam repeatedly email addresses looking for suckers. It is very hard to regulate such emails as usually they use a mass spamming device and mail their requests to all the email addresses they gather. The only way is to educate users that if something sounds too good to be true it usually IS, and not respond to those emails just delete them. They are also clever by sending or posting by spoofing addresses and using ip # that are not their own but belong to innocent people who are unaware of what is happening. Unfortunately when they do not suceed in cashing in by offering something that is too good to be true they search for other weaknesses to exploit. In the case of this forum it is to exploit the people who are searching for their roots and information of missing relatives. Legitimate claims of inheritance do not come via an email from unknown sources but go through proper channels and usually verified with documents. A warning to anyone receiving such 'information' is simply not to respond. This scam has been around for several years now and sending emails to groups such as this one is just another ploy. DO NOT RESPOND, and the webmasters could block email from their source ip or address if it is possible. This advice was given by the detective in charge of the fraud section at our police department.

Hello, members of the Vargas clan -

I am not part of your family, but I am the "other user" who Mr. Bogardi referred to in his post above that received the same scam e-mail you are talking about from our budddy Alvin. Let me just echo what is said above: this is an attempt to rip you off, DO NOT RESPOND to this thief! The letter I was sent sounds identical to what you are discussing, except that he substituted my last name and my ancestor's first name (from whom our "cousin Samuel P." was supposedly also descended).

This letter is similar to hundreds that go around the internet claiming there is a fortune waiting if only someone would volunteer their assistance. Let's hope that if no one responds they will leave us alone. Good luck with your searching, everyone....

minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Lajos
I tried sending you an email re the Csepany family as you
suggested. I haven't received a reply possibly I might have
used a wrong address. I know some of the family tree did spell their last names as Csepan although grandma's name was originally hyphenated as Csepari-Csepanyi-Csepany Maria. Some possibly spelled the names as Csepan but I am not certain. I am planning on a trip to Budapest to see my uncles from my father's side, so possibly can find more information. And a trip to Jaszbereny might help as there are a lot of Csepany's living there, some possibly directly related who could give me some more information. But I do know that my great great grandfather had some sort of a title of 'groff' or something and that my great grandfather married a poor girl of lower class which caused a rift in the family at that time. My great aunt Agnes joined the nunnery as a young girl after some sort of tragedy...although those family 'secrets' were rarely mentioned by grandmother. Heaven knows what one digs up in these searches.My mother's has a brother in Budapest Hamider Andras, but he is sort of a black sheep of the family who had a drinking problem and was often in trouble so no doubt he will be easier to track down if he is still alive, although I had not heard from HIM since 1991 when my mother passed away. It seems hard enough to track down LIVING relatives, ancestors are another can of worms it seems. LOL! My father's brothers are still living in Budapest so that might be a good place to start finding information. At least I hope so.

Wanda Smith: Re: Varga family
Hello. My name is Wanda Smith. I am a daughter of Helen Vargo(a) who is the daughter of Istvan Varga (Oct 7,1882-1957) of Budapest Hungary. My grandfather came to the United States and met my grandmother here. The "aunts" always told me they thought my grandfather had a brother they thought was named Josef. They thought Josef had been in the service, but that my grandfather never heard from him and didn't know what happened to him. My mother (Helen) said that my great-grandmother had been a "lady-in-waiting" in the Hungarian Royal Court. Her name was Lidia Karasz, daughter of Ana Suba and Janos Karasz. Since I know nothing of the Hungarian side of my family, I am hoping you will be able to help me too. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Wanda

Stefan: Re: Varga family
I too am following the Varga name. My grandpa was born in then Hungarian Nagylak to Istvan and Szusana Varga. His name is Janos Varga (1919 - Present). Istvan(Stefan) Varga (died in about 1955 in Lovrin Romania) had 6 children (Szuzana (i.e. Slovak Zuzka), Maria (i.e Slovak Marka), Judith (i.e. Slovak Judka), Istvan he was blind(i.e Slovak Pista), Janos my grandfather (i.e Slovak Iano) and Ghuri (i.e George).

My grandfather knows very little of his fathers family except that his father was Istvan Varga-Bander. I don't know what the "Bander" designation was. His father supposedly had two brothers Janos and Peter Varga-Bander. My grandfathers grandfather was Janos Varga-Bander and he either died in Nagylak or some other town in Hungary. My greatgreatgrandfather (Janos Varga-Bander had two brothers, one moved to Butin (Timis County), Romania (This is where my mother comes from)and the other brother moved to Mocrea (Arad County) Romania.

The intersting this is that the brother that moved to Butin was the greatgrandfather to my grandpa on my mothers side on his mothers side.

I am trying to find out where the Janos Varga-Bander in Nagylak came from. They all spoke Slovak & Hungarian.

My grandpa knows that he has one cousin in Magyar-Nagylak that he lost conact with.

Otsn: Re: Varga family
Hello Wanda,
This is the first time I've logged on to this site in a while, and I read your family history with interest. My grandfather, Josef Varga came to the U.S. in 1902. He met my grandmother Julia Szuras Nemeth in Ohio and they married Nov. 1 1906. We have also heard that they may have come to the U.S. together. So there is another mystery. She was the head pastry chef in the palace, whatever that palace may have been at that time. Her father, or stepfather was also in the Hungarian military and was called "Commodant". He was buried in Ohio in full dress Hungarian uniform - we don't know his first name, either. My grandparents had 5 children. My father was the youngest and none of them survive. I also have very little information about his family other than they were wealthy or well off (not nobles) and had a vineyard, which other posters have said was not uncomon, raised black Arabian horses and bottled their own wine. My grandfather had 7 brothers and 3 sisters, but we do not know their names. My grandfather was in the Crown Guard around 1900. Another poster asked if he might have been a Hussar - horse soldier. I don't really know, but he did ride horses while he was on duty. but, as others on this board have said, that was the main means of transportation back in those days for anyone.
On my grandfather's Social Security Death Record it says his father's name was "Barney" and mother unknown.
I had an Aunt Helen (my father's sister) who never married and died in Cleveland back in the late 80's or early 90's. So I don't think your mother is the Helen Vargo in our family. Other sisters on my fathers side were Julia, Betty, Goldie and Rose. My grandmother had sisters Ann and Elizabeth (just found this out recently.)My grandmother died when my father was 4 or 5.
I wish I had more information, but that's all I have. If any of this sounds familiar, I'd love to hear from you again.
Thanks,
Judi

minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi
Reading your post I was wondering if your granfather's (father's father)name was Barnabas in Hungarian. Knowing how often the names were changed to sound more English it
is a possibility. Barney also sounds a bit like 'barna' but then that would be a last name. In Hungary they usually use the last name or family name first then the given names. Also wives are refered to by their own names or that of their husbands' name we an 'ne' at the end. Example was my mother's name. My father was Guti Sandor and she went by her married name of Guti Sandorne. If the wife was a widow it would have 'ozvegy' in front of the married name. The only name I can think of translating from
Hungarian is Barnabas for the name Barney. Just a tidbit of info for you :)
In your father's case the sisters would be listed under Hungarian versions of Julianna, Erzsebet (Elizabeth or Betty)and Aranyka (Goldie)Perhaps it will help in finding some relevant records.

Hi Judi:
Sorry I clicked the post button twice thats why there are two replies. I forgot to mention that it was also common and still is in many families to name the oldest children after the PARENTS. In my father's family his oldest brother is Jozsef. His father remarried and his full brother from the second wife who is his mother was also named Jozsef both after their father. It gets a bit confusing after a while but perhaps some of the relatives you are looking for have the same name as your grandfather.

minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi
A tidbit of Hungarian history. In August of 1849 there was a revolution against the Hapsburg rule in Hungary. Millitary commanders were executed and prisons were filled with Hungarian soldiers, many of whom excaped abroad. There was a lot of unrest in the country many young men were focibly conscripted. It is possible you father did not like to talk about those days in great detail . However the castle itself became more of a tourist site with a market bazar etc. and the castle was reconstructed between the years of 1885 and 1882. Commander Gorgely Artur and his forces chased out the imperial armies out of the country.But that was in 1849. Not sure when you said your father was born. Or when he was actually an enlisted soldier.
I have a site link to the story of some of the Hungarian forces during the timeframe your father would have been possibly enlisted. Perhaps you can recognize uniforms or something etc.
http://www.austro-hungarian-army.co.uk/index.html
check out the content and troops and units History then the
link under Calvary Division Commanders and then down to
11. Honved Kalvallerie Division which is the Hungarian division and click on the name Hegedus (Hungarian Commander)
There you will see Hegedus in uniform, which might give you an idea what if any connection to that division. As you say your father was buried in his dress uniform there might be a similarity. I do not see a name of varga on the list but that could be because he was from an earlier group.
Good luck

No problem. The dates were not really for any specific reason just that many of those in the Hungarian army left the country and ended up someplace else. It was more for Judi so that she could do more search about the time frame when her grandfather was in the military etc. and maybe help identify the uniform he was buried in as to what regiment he might have belonged to.

Their original house was one of those old fashion village type houses that was torn down back in the early 80s. When I was doing granduate research in Budapest in the 70s I would stay with them many times and I got to know the area fairly well. Still have fond memories of that time. For a time I also lived in Ujpalota in one of those ugly highrise apartment buidlings.

Hello Down,
I'm curious, where did your Cseke information came from, in the early 1900s there was 7 Cseke in Hungary, it would be pretty hard to pick one out without further information. Ellis Island has one arrival from Cseke between 1910-12, but she came with her mother to Detroit! Actually out of 6 Maria Varga who arr'd from Hungary to EI between 1910-12, only one who didn't came with parents:

First Name: Maria
Last Name: Varga
Ethnicity: Hungary, Croatia
Last Place of Residence: Selei (corr. Selce), Hungary
Date of Arrival: December 12, 1911
Age at Arrival: 16y Gender: F Marital Status: S
Ship of Travel: Lapland
Port of Departure: Antwerp
Manifest Line Number: 0016

Per the original scanned shipping manifest, it appears that she was traveling with her cousin and husband to cousin Kata Kardos in Passaic, N.J., which would put her in close proximity to Pa. Is the Kardos name means anything? Her father's name was Varga Ferencz in Selce-P.Djakovo. If this is a match, I can show you how to get church records for Selce.

W. Novak: Re: Rakospalota
Erzsebet,

Sorry but my Hungarian is very rusty. I did make out that you know the Stefancsik family. You may also know then that my aunt, Ilona, died in November 2004. And, yes Gabi is my cousin and I try to keep in touch with her. Her sister Ilona is still in Istanbul but her husband died also last year. Do you live in Budapest now?

Hello Erzsebet
I looked up your map link. Its wonderful to still recognize some of the addresses. I think the names have changed for some of them in the past few years. Im hopeing to go this spring and look up my uncles on my father's side and maybe do some family search. I have my mother's igazolvany szam, her death certificate etc. and I know she is buried in the cemetary not far where she lived. Maybe I can even find some of her other relatives. I know my mother had a cousin who was a singer her name was Sarosi Kati, and she was from the same town as grandma's family. I never heard of her before, but great aunt Agnes used to tell us stories about the family etc.I tried a search on her on the internet at least to find out the town she was from but no luck in even finding her.She is probably in her 70's now if she is still living.

Hello Lajos:
I almost fell off my chair when I read your post. I thought she was probably dead like most of the other relatives as they are all getting on in years. I hope she will be the one I'm looking for but I will write to her. I had absolutely no luck looking on the internet and as far as Hungarian singers go no one seemed to have ever heard of her.Perhaps she might have a bit more information. My only other sort of well known relative is my father's oldest brother Guti Jozsef who is an artist as are two of my cousins.I have spoken to him by phone and we write to each other so I hope to visit HIM sometime this year. He is 14 years older than my dad and is in his 80's. He was born in Debrecen where grandpa was from. While my father's side is easy to trace with living relatives my mothers is not. She passed away in 1991 and is buried in the cemetary behind where she used to live on Paskomliget utca tenements as is grandma her mom. My brother died 4 years later in an accident, and her brother Andras is probably still living in Budapest somewhere. He was a black sheep of sorts and had a problem with alcohol.
Thank you so much and I will let you know when or if I get a reply from Sarosi Katalin, and hope she can give me a bit more information. I was even considering going to Jaszbereny and visiting the nunnery where my great aunt Csepany Agnes spent her life. They might be able to give me information on some of the other relatives who visited her etc. It certainly is a start and thanks again!

Shirley: Re: Maria Varga
Yes, that is my grandmother. I don't know if they knew each other in Hungary.........I couldn't find my grandmother in the 1900 census. My grandfather came from Kortvelyes but now know as Hrusov, Slovak Republic. I believe the two villages they came from are a great distance apart. I know nothing of my grandfather other than where he came from. I don't know if he had any brothers or sisters. My aunts and mother would never talk about my grandfather...they all left my grandfathers home as soon as they could. I did travel to Pennsylvania to where their home was it had been torn down However I did meet a couple of the neighbors who knew of my grandfather, and sad to say none of them had to many nice words about him.....just what I had heard from my mother and aunts. None the less, he was my grandfather and I need to learn of him and my grandmother. They are two important factors in my life. I have no living aunts or uncles who could give me any info on either one. All that's left is my sister and my cousin..and neither one knows anything about them. Shirley

The village of Hrusov's phone book is listing VARGA and TAMAS. Have you tried ordering the church records of Hrusov to see what sort of ancestral information you can locate ? You know that surname Varga can be found in several former A-H countries.

ancabhan: Varga family
I am searching for Vincent Varga and his wife, Ana/ Maria Frits. Their daughter Mary Varga married John Martinides in Golniczbanya, which may now be in Slovakia. Mary and John Martinides would be my great-great-grandparents. I would like to find out more about this family. My great Grandmother would be Jospehine Martinides who married Paul Tuza while in Hungary and later in 1880 came to New York, settling in Yonkers. Does anyone recognize these names?

I did a search on Ellis Island's web site and found a Maria Varga, 15 years old, traveling with Maria Varga, 39 years old. They listed their last place of residence as Cseke, Hungary. They arrived December 14, 1911. They traveled on the ship "President Lincoln", and their port of departure was Hamburg. Let me know if this helps.

johnrhon: Varga (vargo) family name
I just found this web page, and I am a VARGO, and have run across documents that state that my grandparents original name was VARGA, They moved to Charleston SC in 1942 from Ashtabula Ohio. Thier names were Theodore and Helen Vargo. They had two children, Jean and Roger. I know my grand mother had sisters that were still in Ohio, But I never got to meet them. I will try and locate more info, it is in storage. I would like to research this more.

Again, I am searching for a Varga family who lived in Montana at one time and I still believe they may be there. He would be in his late 70's ealy 80's and has been recovered from cancer for a year. Again he has two daughters, one is 56 and the other is 48. Thank you for any information you may have.

Hello Boti,

I am interested in finding out more about your family, as I have a database of Bukovina Szekely descendants. Also, recently, I went to Deva and was able to look at the church records of the Catholic Church there.

I was also recently in Szatmar, so passed not far from your grandfather's home on my way back to Budapest by train.

Who were your great-grandparents?

dsohales
I am hoping someone can help me. My family name is Varga and my great-grandmother was born in Csonapla(there are different variations of the spelling,in the Ellis Island records it is spelled Csonoplya) and came to the U.S. in 1906 aboard the Slavonia with her mother and her sister. Their father was already here, according to my research. My great-grandmother received a letter asking her to return to Hungary(when she was grown with children) to claim land because she was a duchess. It was not a scam because apparently my family did hold this title. I am trying to find any relatives who may still be living and/or any information regarding my family in Hungary. The names were as follows: Palne Varga,Maria Varga,Verona Varga,Pal Varga,John Varga. If anyone can help, please email me doatleyhales -a-t- yahoo.com -d-o-t- It would be greatly appreciated.

Their father around the same time he was stabed to death. My mom was placed with farmers and her sister with the police family in that area. Howe ever Magdalena disapeerd when germans came in, what ever happend to magda we never found out.My mama marrid at 17 or 18 a jozsefni szikszai in kiskufelegyhasa .He died before my sister was born but had my mom send out to germany before my sisters birth. It would be wonderfull to find out more about my grandfather varga and what ever happend to my aunt and about the rapcso family i know that my mom loved her grandfather she always said what beautifull white hair he had and that she saw her granparents now and then , she also said that she had many cousins and one came and saw her in germany right after the war, he had told her most cousins moved to ketszkomet?(spelling).I do not speak hungaryan but love to learn since i am very proud to be full hungaryan since my father was also from hungary, i just realy love to solve the mistery of my disapiering aunt and more of my family.

Marika: Varga - család keresése
Sok- sok év várakozása után , úgy döntöttem, hogy megkeresem a Varga rokonságot Canadából.Bár én már a negyedik generáció vagyok, de remélem nem lesz hiábavaló a kutatásom.Mi ösztönzött rá? Az, hogy nagymamám meghalt és a megmaradt levelek között megtaláltam a fényképeket, amely a Varga családé volt.De nem tudok vele mit kezdeni. Hátha tud nekem valaki segíteni benne.Tehát segítséget kérek Önöktől, ha bárki tud nekem segíteni , akkor szívesen venném. Előre is köszönöm!!!!
Keresem: János Vargát,aki 1983-ban volt 86 éves
kinek van egy ifj.Jahn Varga fia.
Ifj Jahn Vargának van két lánya akiknek a neve:
Dayna : aki 1983-ban volt 5 éves,
Jessika: aki 1983-ban volt 16 hónapos.
János Vargának van egy lánya is aki vak az ő neve: Elenor.
De nem biztos , hogy vak , csak egy családtagom említette, hogy talán vak volt, ő úgy emlékszik vissza.
Elenornak van két fia:
a nagyobbik fiú 1983-ban (április 8.-án)volt 19 éves,a neve: János
a kisebbik fiú 1983-ban (február 27.-én) volt 13 éves, a neve: Pál

Ennyi az információm a talált adatok alapján és persze a fényképek.
Az én kutatásom eredménye:
Varga Jánosnak volt egy huga Varga Anna, aki az én dédnagymamám volt. Én már őt nem ismerhettem meg , mert mire én megszülettem ő már halott volt.
Varga Anna édesanyjának a leánykori neve: Pák Mária
A Pák család valahol Hernád-"Németi"-ben éltek egy darabig.
Varga Anna férje Besenyi Mihály lett.Nekik született 7 gyerekük:Besenyei István,Besenyei Piroska,Besenyei Anna,Besenyei József,Besenyei Erzsébet,Besenyei Margit,Besenyei Ilonka.
Tehát az én nagymamám: Besenyei Piroska
Besenyei Piroka férjhez ment Ricz Istvánhoz.
Tehát: Ricz Istvánné, született: Besenyei Piroska
született:1915.dec.31 születési hely: Taktaszada
Tehát ő az én nagymamám, akinél találtam a levelet és a fényképeket. És még valami, ami fontos lehet a nagymamám a Csincse tanyán született.
Tehát, keresem a "Varga" családot akik Canadában élnek:
János Varga, gyerekei:Ifj.John Varga és Elenor Varga,
Ifj.John Varga lányai: Dayna Varga,Jessika Varga,
Elenor Varga fiai: János és Pál

minera: Re: Varga
Hi Szuszanna:

The town your cousins moved to was probably Kecskemet as the spelling you wrote is phonetick and when read back sounds just like Kecskemet.
Finding relatives lost during the war can be very difficult if not impossible. My grandfather also dissapeared during the war. He was taken by the Germans to a labour camp somewhere in Romania and none of the family could find anything as to what had happened to him. Many people for whatever reasons were shipped to labour camps so it is unlikely many survived the conditions.I recently returned from a trip to Budapest. Finding burial plots or death records can be a problem particularly in big cities. It seems after a certain lenght of time the graves are moved unless a specified amount to 'renew' the locations is paid by the families. My mother and brother died only less than 15 years ago and both had been moved. They had to search through several books before the correct plot number was found and upon looking for it they were again misplaced. It's probably a nightmare trying to find some of the records particularly old ones or anything dating pre or during the last war. I finally found my brother's grave (died in 1995)after traipsing through the cemetary in Jaszbereny district of Budapest, none of the numbers given to me were the correct ones and after freaking out and getting all upset the woman in the office gave me a 'general location' where we spent a whole day searching. I finally found it by chance looking in the completely opposite direction than the 'map' she gave me. My grandparent's graves were gone and the last record had someone else buried there as they were moved. About the only thing you can try is maybe a paper trail but you have to be very persistent and patient. There is no record anywhere of my grandfather on mother's side only his name on the marriage certificate. Some records were put into computers and probably many errors were made. My grandma who died in 1976 was not where she used to be. Immagine my horror when I saw a completely different person buried in her plot! And to make matters worse they couldn't find where she was put after the fact.
Im sure probably small towns are a bit different but big cities are another story.

So if anyone can be of assistance, it would be greatly appreciated. please accept my thanks in advance!

Im looking for: János Varga, who in 1983 was 86 years old. he has a son, Jahn Varga.
Jahn Varga has two daughters, whose names are:
Dayna, who in 1983 was 5
Jessika, who in 1983 was 16 months
János Varga also has a daughter, whose name is Elenor.
Im not sure, but a relative said she is blind, but isnt certain, thats just how its recalled.
Elenor has two sons:
János, who in 1983 was 19 (birthday 8th April)
Pál, who in 1983 was 13 (birthday 27 feb)

In addition i have found the following information:

János Varga had a younger sister, Anna, who was my great grandmother. I never got to meet her, as she died before i was born.

Varga Annas mothers maiden name was Pák Mária.
The Pák family lived in Hernád Németi for a while.
Varga Annas husband was Besenyei Mihály. They had 7 children: István, Piroska, Anna, József, Erzsébet, Margit and Ilonka.

My grandmother was Besenyei Piroska, who was born 31st December 1915 in Taktaszada.
She married Ricz István,and therefore became Ricz Istvánné.
She was the grandmother amongst whose possesions i found the photos and letters. One more thing, that may be of importance, my grandmother was born on the Csincse tanya.

So, once again, im looking for the Varga family, who live in Canada.

János Varga, his children John and Elenor.
John Vargas daughters, Dayna and Jessika.
Elenors sons, János and Pál.


Phew, hope that helps! Erzsike

Hi Erzsike:

If you have an idea what city in Canada your relatives live
try checking Canada411 directories. They have a listing of people and their phone numbers/addresses as per the telephone books. If they are in Toronto do a search for Ontario. If you need any help let me know and I will do my best.

Hi Lajos:
thanks for the info on Sarosi Katalin. I will have to write to her first. I spent one week in Budapest last month but did not have time to do all the searching I needed to do. I did contact some living relatives and got a bit more information what to look for and where etc. But I did not want to show up on anyone's doorstep so the Sarosi relative will get a letter first. Szocs Aron utca where my mother moved to from before she died from the complex changed. New apartments where some of the people I remembered where ie Deruzs Preszo.

Alena: Varga Gyorgy
Hi!
I'm trying to start to build our family tree and I'm stuck right at the beggining. My father Robert was born in Hungary 4.8 1946 in a place called Kerekegyhaza ( i'm not sure of the spelling unfortunately). Year later they all moved to that time Czechoslovakia. My grandfathers name was Gyorgy Varga, my gmothers Magdalena Handelsman. Gfathers mum was called Teresa, and is believed she came from an aristocratic family. The name of the family I belive was either von Estergally(again not sure of the spelling) or de Estergally. I'd like to trace my grandfathers origins very much so. He had 11 siblings, some of them might still be alive.
My gfather was a topographer and saved my gmothers life when she escaped from a concentration camp (she was of Jewish origin from Mukacevo in Carpathian Russia).
I would appreciate any information.
Thank you!

Stefan: Re: transylvania
I wonder is there is a link between the two families here?
The years seem to line up but the names are different.
Read the previous posts and see if you can relate to any of it from what has been passed down to you.

The Bander that followed the Varga name, I think is a designation for the militia that was put together by the Russyn Stepan Bander against the invading throne from Moscow.

Hello
My grand-grand-grand(?) father name was Varga Janos.He was born in 1876 in Mezobodon(Transilvania,Romania) his wife name was Fekete Anna and she was born in Marosludas(Trans.) in 1880.Their son Varga Daniel is my grand-grand father. That's all I know...


<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
This was my earlier message:

I too am following the Varga name. My grandpa was born in then Hungarian Nagylak to Istvan and Szusana Varga. His name is Janos Varga (1919 - Present). Istvan(Stefan) Varga (died in about 1955 in Lovrin Romania) had 6 children (Szuzana (i.e. Slovak Zuzka), Maria (i.e Slovak Marka), Judith (i.e. Slovak Judka), Istvan he was blind(i.e Slovak Pista), Janos my grandfather (i.e Slovak Iano) and Ghuri (i.e George).

My grandfather knows very little of his fathers family except that his father was Istvan Varga-Bander. I don't know what the "Bander" designation was. His father supposedly had two brothers Janos and Peter Varga-Bander. My grandfathers grandfather was Janos Varga-Bander and he either died in Nagylak or some other town in Hungary. My greatgreatgrandfather (Janos Varga-Bander had two brothers, one moved to Butin (Timis County), Romania (This is where my mother comes from)and the other brother moved to Mocrea (Arad County) Romania.

The intersting this is that the brother that moved to Butin was the greatgrandfather to my grandpa on my mothers side on his mothers side.

I am trying to find out where the Janos Varga-Bander in Nagylak came from. They all spoke Slovak & Hungarian.

My grandpa knows that he has one cousin in Magyar-Nagylak that he lost conact with.

1941-ben született Kunhegyesen. Varga József és Bacsu Julianna gyermekeként. Varga Margit volt a növére, a nagymamám. Kisújszálláson érettségizett, majd fül-, orr-,gégészeten dolgozott Budapesten az elmúlt 40 évben.

Galambos Bernadett,
I have been spending most of the evening trying to translate your post as well as Valika's. If I understand correctly, you know of a Varga Jozef and a Bacsu Julianna who had a child in 1941 in Kunhegysen. Varga Margit was the grandmother.
My grandfather Varga Josef was born in Hungary in 1879. Could the Jozef you are talking about be a nephew? Can't help but wonder. I pray that there is a relation. Some say my grandfather was born in Budapest. But there are so many Varga's in Hungary.
I had hoped to write to you in my poor Hungarian, but my online-Magyar-Angol dictionary stopped working. So I'll try again. Thank you, Judi

minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi:
I read your post and I am translating Bernadett's message as best as I can for you.
She wrote:
" With deep regret I wish to inform everyone that Varga Jolan, married name Horgosi Istvane is no longer among us.
There are so many here seeking information regarding Varga families, I thought I would add my message among them.
She was born in 1941, in Kunhegy. Varga Jozsef and Bacsu Julianna were her parents. Her sister Varga Margit was my grandmother. She finished her edication in Kisuszallas and worked at an ear/nose clinic in Budapest for the past 40 years of her life. Anyone who belongs to the family please write me.
Sincerely
Galambos Bernadett"
I tried to translate exact meaning. It appears Varga Jolan her grandmother's sister died, and anyone belonging to the family to write her.

Hope the above helps.

Hi again Judi:
Valika's message was:

"Loving greetings to all Varga families. My grandfather Varga Karoly along with his parents came to Nagyvarad from KisMajar approximately 30 km from HegkozSentImre (Romania) sometimes after the war.
I think that at that time they wanted a new life as did many others. As fate had it my grandparents on mother's side also came to this area for the same reasons. The came from Bekesmegye.
When I was very small approximately 42 years ago, a dear relative came from Kismarja to visist us. The only time I saw the relative and have not seen or heard from or about them since. If anyone know someone with the name and any information I would love to meet with them.
email: valeriakamenszki-a-t-gmail-d-o-t-com "

Unfortunately she does not mention the name of the relative or their gender whenther they were male of female.

Hope the above helps.

Mateos,
Thank you for your reply. Maybe it's possible these Josephs are related to my grandfather. Especially the one in South Bend.
I was communicating with a Vargo from South Bend who said our family history sounded like his. He said he would ask an older relative for the family tree he did in high school. He never wrote back after many e-mails I sent him.
Thanks again.

I can't say I've really learned Hungarian, but the Magyar-Anglo dictionary you sent comes in handy. I still have trouble because Hungarian words have so many different meanings, but it's fun to try.
Let me know if you get a new e-mail address. I'll write through Shirley in the meantime.

minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi
Glad to be of any help. It is very frustrating when there are so many with the same last name. Being from Hungary myself, I have a bit of an easier time as I still have relatives back home. I am making a book, sort of a story of my life and journeys to how I got here and where I am today in my life. I am also translating old letters, and attaching photographs etc. It is easier as I have most of my documents,landing manifests,birth certificates, death certificates etc. I think sometime in the future it would be a great legacy to leave behind for my children. I also labeled, dated and explained what is in many photos on the back of them. When I was young photos were hard to come by and thankfully my father had an interest in photography, so I have a lot of pictures of relatives, my life in the refugee camps after the revolution and many others after that. Unfortunately, many others have a lot more meagre resources to start their search with. I wish you the best in your search and don't give up.

darcyvarga: Re: Varga family
Hi Laura,

I am researching my husband's family and have a Karoly Varga, born in Bezded, Szabolcs Megye, Hungary in 1882 or 1883. He immigrated to the US in 1907. He married Julianna Bacskai from Kisgéres, Zemplén Megye prior to immigrating. They settled in Carteret, NJ (then known as Chrome). Do you know what part of Hungary the Vargas you're researching are from?

mjk: Obtaining birth certificate
Hello Andrea,
It is not difficult to obtain a birth certificat in Hungary.
YOu must know the town where you were born and write a letter or phone the City Hall where they keep the records. (provided you speak Hungarian) They will have a record of your birth and they can issue you a copy of your birth certificate for a fee of less than $20.
If you have a relative in Hungary perhaps they can help you to get the birth certificate.
Good luck.

minera: Re: segitseget kerek
Hi Andrea:
The best thing you can do is go to your nearest Hungarian Consulate in US and give them all your information. They will probably ask you for identification, and charge you a small fee. They do not freely give the certificates to anyone, although when I got married I wrote and received one with the help of my mother. Your best bet would be the embassy unless you plan to visit then you can get the documents personally.

My great-great-grandmother was Erzsebet Varga, born in 1850 in Fulposdaroc. She moved to Porcsalma when she married Szarka Karoly. I believe they had 3 children - Karoly (1874, who is my great-grandfather), Joszef (1878), and Istvan (1876 - died very young, maybe at birth?). Is there anyone in this group who might have some information on her?

Sajnos bővebben nem tudom, hogy kell ezt csinálni, nekem az egyik barátnőm családfakutatással foglalkozik, én összeszedtem annyi adatot amennyit csak tudtam, és ő indult el levéltárakba kutatni. Nekem annyival szerencsém volt, hogy a nagypapám volt Varga, aki 1906-ban született és meg volt az ő szüleiről a papír, és eleve már az 1800-s évek közepéből indultunk. De nem egyszerű, mert rengeteg Varga van.Az enyémek Nádudvarról származnak.
Ha nagyjából tudja honnan származnak, érdemes az ottani anyakönyvekbe, vagy mikrofilmekbe belemélyedni, és bogarászni. Üdv Orsi

CharlesChristopherVarga: Re: Varga family
Yes. My Father Charles C. Varga, Jr. was the son of Julia Varga who married Blanche Godeski (Golubesdi) of 98 Pulaski Avenue, Carteret , New Jersey 07008.

I am their son, Charles Christpher Varga III born July 30 , 1939.

The Chrome Section of Carteret at one time was offically "Chrome, New Jersey", with a middle community known as Rosevelt (sp) and a third , Carteret.

Some time after 1900, the three(3) merged into one incorporated town known as Carteret.

Carteret has a rich history of Hungarian peoples who came about the ame period as your Grandfather Josef.

The best place for records is the Hungarian Reform Church of which my Father and Grandfather were long time members. The churh is located on Pershing Avenue.

Born in 1939 , I do not recall Josef specifically, but there were several Varga, Sabo, Nagy, Sandor, Toth, and a host of other for me household names all of whose children and grandchidren all of which wen to grade school and high school together.

The Kovacs Family were also very thick in Carteret. Bill and Amil were very successfull as Pharmacist and Amil as President of Forter Wheeler Canada, and John Brown Shipyard in the UK.

My Fathers Father, Karolyi C. married sisters. The other half was part of the Kovacs and Ganci Families who had a very lare farm in CT - to which we traveled each summer on a working vacation.

Although I was too young to remember Josef, I do believe that a Varga Family did live in Chrome as we also did - with a little gorcer and butcher shop thee.

The Hungarian Reform Church wil be you best source of baptisim an communian and birth records for that period and those Hungarian Families living there.

My name is Charles C. Varga Jr. I am a Visiting Scholar at University of Southern California, n Los Angeles. My mentor is Dr. George Olah, Nobel Laurate at the USC School of Chemistry and who won the prize in 1991 for Super Acids.

I am on leave doing a thesis in Washington DC.

Please write me at:

Charles C. Varga, Jr.
3625 South Grand, Unit 277
Los Angeles, CA 90007

Born in 1939 , I do not recall Josef specifically, but there were several Varga, Sabo, Nagy, Sandor, Toth, and a host of other for me household names all of whose children and grandchidren all of which wen to grade school and high school together.

The Kovacs Family were also very thick in Carteret. Bill and Amil were very successfull as Pharmacist and Amil as President of Forter Wheeler Canada, and John Brown Shipyard in the UK.

My Fathers Father, Karolyi C. married sisters. The other half was part of the Kovacs and Ganci Families who had a very lare farm in CT - to which we traveled each summer on a working vacation.

Although I was too young to remember Josef, I do believe that a Varga Family did live in Chrome as we also did - with a little gorcer and butcher shop thee.

The Hungarian Reform Church wil be you best source of baptisim an communian and birth records for that period and those Hungarian Families living there.

My name is Charles C. Varga Jr. I am a Visiting Scholar at University of Southern California, n Los Angeles. My mentor is Dr. George Olah, Nobel Laurate at the USC School of Chemistry and who won the prize in 1991 for Super Acids.

I am on leave doing a thesis in Washington DC.

Some time after 1900, the three(3) merged into one incorporated town known as Carteret.

Carteret has a rich history of Hungarian peoples who came about the ame period as your Grandfather Josef.

The best place for records is the Hungarian Reform Church of which my Father and Grandfather were long time members. The churh is located on Pershing Avenue.

Born in 1939 , I do not recall Josef specifically, but there were several Varga, Sabo, Nagy, Sandor, Toth, and a host of other for me household names all of whose children and grandchidren all of which wen to grade school and high school together.

The Kovacs Family were also very thick in Carteret. Bill and Amil were very successfull as Pharmacist and Amil as President of Forter Wheeler Canada, and John Brown Shipyard in the UK.

My Fathers Father, Karolyi C. married sisters. The other half was part of the Kovacs and Ganci Families who had a very lare farm in CT - to which we traveled each summer on a working vacation.

Although I was too young to remember Josef, I do believe that a Varga Family did live in Chrome as we also did - with a little gorcer and butcher shop thee.

The Hungarian Reform Church wil be you best source of baptisim an communian and birth records for that period and those Hungarian Families living there.

My name is Charles C. Varga Jr. I am a Visiting Scholar at University of Southern California, n Los Angeles. My mentor is Dr. George Olah, Nobel Laurate at the USC School of Chemistry and who won the prize in 1991 for Super Acids.

Message from CharlesChristopherVarga in the forum:
http://www.radixforum.com/surnames/varga/

Yes. My Father Charles C. Varga, Jr. was the son of Julia Varga who married Blanche Godeski (Golubesdi) of 98 Pulaski Avenue, Carteret , New Jersey 07008.

I am their son, Charles Christpher Varga III born July 30 , 1939.

The Chrome Section of Carteret at one time was offically "Chrome, New Jersey", with a middle community known as Rosevelt (sp) and a third , Carteret.

Some time after 1900, the three(3) merged into one incorporated town known as Carteret.

Carteret has a rich history of Hungarian peoples who came about the ame period as your Grandfather Josef.

The best place for records is the Hungarian Reform Church of which my Father and Grandfather were long time members. The churh is located on Pershing Avenue.

Born in 1939 , I do not recall Josef specifically, but there were several Varga, Sabo, Nagy, Sandor, Toth, and a host of other for me household names all of whose children and grandchidren all of which wen to grade school and high school together.

The Kovacs Family were also very thick in Carteret. Bill and Amil were very successfull as Pharmacist and Amil as President of Forter Wheeler Canada, and John Brown Shipyard in the UK.

My Fathers Father, Karolyi C. married sisters. The other half was part of the Kovacs and Ganci Families who had a very lare farm in CT - to which we traveled each summer on a working vacation.

Although I was too young to remember Josef, I do believe that a Varga Family did live in Chrome as we also did - with a little gorcer and butcher shop thee.

The Hungarian Reform Church wil be you best source of baptisim an communian and birth records for that period and those Hungarian Families living there.

My name is Charles C. Varga Jr. I am a Visiting Scholar at University of Southern California, n Los Angeles. My mentor is Dr. George Olah, Nobel Laurate at the USC School of Chemistry and who won the prize in 1991 for Super Acids.

I am on leave doing a thesis in Washington DC.

reich lajos: Re: Stephen (Steve) Varga
Kedves Endresz úr!
Az üzenete azért is nagyon meglepő számomra, mert évek óta próbálunk a barátommal valami fogodzót találni egy másik Varga ügyében........ Nézze végig az üzeneteket, főként az elsőt, ezen a lapon, küldője Otsn -a-t- aol -d-o-t- com Az illető egyébként szintén Ohioban, nem is olyan messze Daytontól, Tipp Cityben lakik. Valami ötlete talán van, hogy lehetne a semmiből elindulni........
Köszönöm a figyelmét: Reich Lajos Budapest.

Otsn -a-t- aol -d-o-t- com: Re: Stephen (Steve) Varga

Dr. Endresz,
I read your post, and the post of my good friend, Reich, Lajos.
I live in the Dayton, Ohio area. I called St. Stephen's Church and got the name of the church historian, Joanne Clark. I called Mrs. Clark and she took down the information you provided in the post. She is having surgery soon and will not be able to research the information for another 2 or 3 weeks. She will also ask the older members of the church about Steven Varga, who helped found this church.
When Mrs. Clark contacts me, I will contact you immediately.
Thank you for the opportunity to help you in any way I can as Reich Lajos has so generously helped me over the years.

Zlatica : Re: Ida Varga
Wright

You have the most important thing needed for your research except incorrectly spelled and thus you can not find anything.
Here is an old Hungarian megye map:
http://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910
I think Sza Boles sounds like Szabolcs megye and there a town named Zsurk.
Your Abarijtornia much better as Abauj-Torna megye and Hliveg, Ardo a Hidvegardo.
Check LDS-Mormons website for the church records which you can order and gather ancestral information.

Hi

Your ancestor, Ida VARGA was naturalized citizen. Set of numbers by her name on her "Ellis Island" manifest.

VARGA in Zsurk's and CSONTOS in Hidvegardo's phone book www.magyartelekom.hu/fooldal.vm
Possible some distant relatives. (?)

My great-grandmother's name was Ilona Varga from Szilagybagos. She was born in 1883. She married Janos Radi, also from Szilagybagos. Does this help you any? I'm also trying to find out who her parents were.

Shirley: Varga--letter
Hello, I too am looking for Varga. I received a letter from Hungary, concerning a Varga family. However the entire letter is written in Hungarian and was wondering if someone would be willing to translate the letter for me. I'd be very grateful.

Hi Lajos
It is nice to see you are still in the forum. You were a great help in the past.
Shirley did email me but never did send me the copy of the letter and her reply was accidently deleted among others by one of my kids. I was in Budapest for a few days last year but next time I will try and look you up.

Hi Claude
I live in Calgary. There are a lot of Varga names in phone book. If he came after 1956 or the time of the revolution and you know his last address in Hungary or where he was from it is not that hard to trace his family.

minera: Re: Varga family
Hi Judi
WEll, thankfully I can read and write and speak Hungarian fluently. I did attend grade school there before the Revolution, and on many occassions when I had the chance and the money I would visit my mother and brother in Budapest. They have both passed away, but I still keep in touch with family left back there. In fact I went back last year for unfortunately a very short stay, just to visit the gravesites and pay the renewal fees etc. in Budapest. It is frustrating not to have information about ones family, and I wish I had listened more when my grandma or the old people talked about the past when I was young. Since my father's deat
