The family history Search website just recently made available on-line more

records from Eastern Slovakia.  This was very exciting for us.  We have found

birth records, marriage records, and death records for several ancestors here.



We have been looking for some time for birth records for great-grandfather (and

someone who is possibly his brother) to trace the line further back.  We know

that great-grandfather was born about 1825 Piszana.  We were so excited to find

Piszana films on the site, but unfortunately they started in 1860.  Our friend

who has read many of these films says that in cases of this sort she often finds

the record in a nearby larger church (in a more major town during that time

period) where records were kept for that town.  She feels sure that we would

find these earlier records for Piszana in a "cathedral church."



CAN ANYONE ONE SUGGEST WHAT SLOVAKIAN TOWN THIS WOULD BE?

I suggest that you order the 1869 Hungarian Census films at your nearest LDS

Family History Center.

FelsÅ`-Piszana (Vysná Písaná) Film #2150630 Item 9

We are looking for the name of the parents of great grandfather and his

siblings.  Great-grandfather would have been about 44 then and living in

Miklusovce with his children.  We know the names of his children.



So would this census tell us the names of great grandfather's parents and his

siblings?

Everybody who lived in each house in 1869, their relationship, year of birth and

religion. It's a gold mine of information.

Hello jtgen96?



You did not state which religion you are researching.  Crucial.



Piszana is the old Magyar spelling for present-day Nisna Pisana and Vysna

Pisana.



Greek Catholic Records for these villages were also kept in SVIDNIK.

Jtgen96,

     A speculation. In the middle 1800's 52 years old would not have been

considered "relatively young". "The female life span in the 1800's was 57 years

old which is a four year difference with the males in the 1800's .The male's

life span on average lived to be about 53 years old."

     By the ages of the children, "22 to 6" and "who served in Mikulasova for

over 22 years", one would think they were an established family in the village.

Especially, so because the husband was the Greek Catholic priest. A respected

family also. I would believe the widow would stay on in the village. The only

reason I could see her moving out is if she re-married. And since she was in her

"sunset" years of her life I doubt that she would remarry.



Miklusovce has a population of 330. Sedice is 4 km / 2.4 miles away has a

population of 1,024. I would suspect Miklusovce would be an affilated parish.

But the truth is Miklusovce is on the online records under Greek Catholic and

Sedice is to be found in the Roman Catholic records.

You can find examples of both outcomes-widows remarrying, even in their 50s,

usually with widowers, and widows who remained unmarried. Remember that

above all, marriages constituted an economic unit with the husband "bringing

home the bacon," so to speak, and the wife running the household. The loss

of either one would usually make life difficult for the one left behind. In

your case, however, her 22-year-old son would have been old enough to become

the head of the household.







When an individual became widowed, remarriage usually took place quickly, in

the vast majority of cases within the year. You may find the bride of this

second marriage under her maiden name with the note that she was "widow of

___."







My records include a marriage with an evangelical priest who died when their

child was an infant. She returned to her "home town" and did not remarry. I

strongly suspect that she was supported by the child's godfather, a

prominent and wealthy noble.







In another case, the wife was left with three infant children when her

teacher husband committed suicide. She did not remarry either, probably

because of the stigma attached to her husband's suicide. In her case it led

to extreme poverty.

This is information taken from the 1995 Slovak Census. The first two are the

names that Nizna Pisana and Vysna Pisana has gone by since 1773.

The two pieces of information about those two villages tell you that Nizna

Pisana and Vysna Pisana in 1995 had these surnames and how many people had that

surname. Usually these list shown is not the complete list. They do get down to

single listings. Here is the same information for Dobroslava:

Dobroslava SK/PV saris.

1773 Dobroszlava, Dobroslava, 1786 Dobraszlawa, 1808 Dobroszlava, Dobroslawa,

1863-1902 Dobroszlava, 1907-1913 Dobroszló, 1920 Dobroslav, 1927- Dobroslava



  obci DOBROSLAVA (okr. SVIDNÍK) sa v roku 1995 nachádzali najcastejsie tieto

priezviská: VASILENKO 11×; VASILENKOVÁ 8×; BARTKO 7×; BARTKOVÁ 6×; BEREZNÁ 4×;

BEREZNÝ 4×; JANEKOVÁ 3×; HNÁT 3×; HNAT 2×; HNÁTOVÁ 2×; LAZOVÁ 2×; MARCÁK 2×;

On the Road Atlas I have for Slovakia it shows that Drobroslava had a church

that was large enough or important enough that its name was on the map. You do

not see that often. So that "cathedral church" you were searching for is

probably in Drobroslava. Fortunatel, for you all the places have there records

in one set of books.
