SUCCESS STORY: "Your map worked! I quickly found the 1794 baptismal record finally identifying my third great grandparents. I had been searching other communities in that area for years. Your map showed me where else to look."
With the aid of Google Maps and information sourced from Dvorzsák's 1877 gazetteer [digitized copies available for free at Family search], distinctive maps were designed to illustrate the religious parishes for the major religions in Hungary. In instances where not every village had a church or synagogue, it becomes necessary to broaden your search into neighboring villages. These maps serve as valuable tools to address such situations.
This page, and the maps below, are best viewed on a computer rather than mobile device.
