Austria-Hungry. Not sure of the port he (they) came through. He was born

He died some time in 1960 in a town called Sugar Creek, Missouri.

Hello,
I am researching my GGGrandfather Josef BAUER (1840-10 Feb 1920) and his
wife, Katherine IKLESAYER (1849-1 Mar 1936). Both were born in Illmitz,
Burgenland, Austria (formerly Alsoillmic, Moson megye, Hungary).
They had 7 children in Illmitz and 1 born in Minnesota (St. Paul).
I would be interested in anyone researching a related line. Please
contact me directly. Thank-you.

Hi Ron,
An excellent translation of this is available at
http://feefhs.org/ah/hu/con-1828.html
Martha M. Conner posted it in June. It can also be reached from the feefhs
website. It first told me couldn't connect, hit reload, and then there was no
problem. Good Luck.

If you are not sure if the couple married here or in Europe, I would look for
her under both names. But my grandmother came over from Hungary as a single
woman and I found her maiden name on the passenger list. But since I was
looking for both names, I also found her future brother-in-law on the same

When we visited my Janos' relatives in the village of Tamasda (about 30km
south of Salonta, Jud. Bihor, Romania) this Summer, I dutifully photographed
the individual pages from the Szilagyi family Bible that an elderly cousin
had in his home. I thought it would be nice to have in case someone became
interested in the Szilagyi family history some day. It's also interesting
from a cultural standpoint, in that the handwriting of the original book's
owner shows extraordinary education for a small Transylvania
I too am looking for KOTELES and BODNAR from Hungary arriving in 1904.
Would love to keep going with this discussion........

This may help you. I noticed that the LDS library had sereral
refferences about Germans who moved to Hungary. Perhaps if you
consulted there Library Catalog you may find a film that will assist
you.
Good luck in your research.

Does anyone remember the Hungarian revolt? Was it 1956? I was very young,
but I clearly remember the refugees my grandparents took into their home.
I've often wondered what happened to those people. Is there an organization
that kept track of them?
Just wondering.....
