Subject: [HUNGARY-L] FELT vs FELDEV

I just learned from a half-sister that the original spelling of our family
name was FELDEV rather than FELT. She claims it was changed by the
immigration folks on entry to the US, which I know frequently happened and
that is the genesis of the Soundex .

Is this a possibility because I have never yet found any FELTs searching
for them in Hungarian sources?
