1. [HUNGARY-L] Re: A few questions [1]
Here is my vote: How likely are they to chose godparents who reside in the US? Very likely in the old days when communication was cumbersome to say the least. How likely are they to chose godparents from their place of birth? Also likely if there was a lot of strong family ties and tradition. Are they more likely to chose a married couple to be godmother and godfather? Yes.
2. Re: [HUNGARY-L] Pronunciation [1]
Thank you for your help. I am not good at phonics at all.....may get my grandson to say it phonetically for me. Am trying to figure out why some spellings in the early 1900's were tagye...dedi...dagi...and so on. Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net http://www.cafepress.com/formernuns
3. [HUNGARY-L] Hungarian Village Photography [1]
I agree with Ken regarding the advertising, with one possible exception. If someone is looking for a particular service ( local photographer, genealogist researcher or such) and ask for recommendations or suggestions, I see no harm in others who have used such services to make a recommendation.

Pilla, The word you're looking for in all probability is "bvgyvs". Most of the time it is used to describe a well endowed girl or woman in a nice or humorous way. Joseph M.

14. [HUNGARY-L] word [1]
When I was growing up and my hair was a mess, such as windblown, my mother used to say I was "boogyos", (that's the way it sounded to me). Does any one know what the word is? Or what it translates to? I can't find any thing in a dictionary, so I am wondering if it was one of her own words, a colloquialism perhaps? Pilla

17. [HUNGARY-L] Initial Research Questions [1]
I would like to put in my two cents about ordering records or looking up the information yourself. If you look in the FHL records you see the entire information, you might find sibling, aunts, uncles, births, marriages, deaths, they may list parents names and lots more information than you will get with a birth certificate sent to you by the Embassy. Even if you can't read the language you can use a Hungarian-American dictionary to look up words. You will find a whole new world and only the cost of the re

19. Re: [HUNGARY-L] Initial Research Questions [1]
I have two major stumbling blocks in my search for Tegyi ancestors. I do not speak, read or write the Hungarian language AND I do not have access to an LDS center. I would be willing to pay $15.00 for each birth record I could get from the Hungarian Government. I know when and where my great grandfather was born and would love to know who his parents were and if he had any siblings. Who would I write to for this information? I cannot afford to pay a researcher but I could pay for various certificates.

Maybe, it is just me, but I don't think this forum should be used for advertising--even if it related to our ancestors. It should be reserved for true researching needs--not for profit by an individual or company. Ken Curtis ASZMONGYA, TOTH, PENTEK, KERTESZ, BARRICK, DEMBOSKY
