| Meredith,
These are the various names for the once two village Magyar and Nagy Komját(h) in the old pre 1920 Ugocsa County, Hungary: Velyki Komyaty (Velyki Komjaty, Velikiye Komiaty), in Rusyn, Ukranian and Russian languages. On the following map, it's shortened to "Vel. Kom'jaty" just north of Vinohradiv: http://www.personal.ceu.hu/students/97/Roman_Zakharii/map-berehove-vynohradiv.gif In searching for Komjat, I come across this book at Amazon.com: Upon the Head of the Goat: A Childhood in Hungary, 1939-1944 By Aranka Siegal, about a little girl who was sent to her granma in Komjaty: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/014036966X/qid=1099614103/sr=8-1/ref=pd_ka_1/002-2150664-9877662?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 "All Customer Reviews Average Customer Review: (4 1/2 stars of 5) Write an online review and share your thoughts with other customers. (5 stars) Started my love for all things Hungarian, September 5, 2004 Reviewer: Anyechka (Rensselaer, NY United States) - See all my reviews This was the first book I read about the Shoah in Hungary, and it was so fascinating that it got me interested in all things Hungarian. It's different from many books about the Shoah in that the majority of it takes place before the Nazi invasion of Hungary on 19 March 1944, when the remaining members of the Davidowitz family are shipped off to a ghetto. Though life is growing increasingly hard for them because of the anti-Jewish regulations and the strain of living during a war in general, and Piri had to stay in the Ukraine with her grandmother and older sister Rozsi longer than she expected to because of a border war, the Davidowitzes still have a pretty normal and decent life before they have to leave for the ghetto." Good luck. | ||
