Muster Rolls
Districts Map
Embedded Files
With the aid of Google Maps and information sourced from the FamilySearch catalog, a map has been created to display all the military districts that were in Hungary. A great deal of these districts covered many surrounding towns and villages, while some only cover one specific locality.
Dates vary for these records greatly, with some beginning in the 1790’s and most others in the middle-to-late 1800s; some records reach into the early 1900s. The records are generally organized by muster year and then birth year. The records themselves contain a great deal of identifying information about your ancestor. To the right, you will find an example from the Miskolc military district in Borsod megye from 1896.
