Radix: Vojnics photo
I possess a photo of a member of the once high-ranking Vojnics family. This family was most famous in old Hungary's Bács-Bodrog County, and in several of its towns.

The back of the photo says: Frank Vojnics' father (now Ferenc Borbiro). The referred Frank Vojnics is probably Ferenc Vojnics, mayor of Baja between 1915-1930. The Vojnics surname was changed to Borbíró to make it a Hungarian-sounding one.

Bodroghy: Re: Vojnics photo
My grandfather was BORBIRO (Vojnics) Ferenc, mayor of Baja from 1915 to 1937. He was born in Szabadka in 187; at that time his full name was VOJNICS Zelics Ferenc Jozsef; died in Ligonier, Pennsylvania USA in 1962. He changed his name to BORBIRO Ferenc in 1931. His biography was published in Baja in 2007 (A varos keresi multjat).
His father was VOJNICS Zelics Felix Maximilian, born in Szabadka in 1852 and died in Szabadka in 1895. I have no picture of him; the picture shown may well be his.
