I have taken pictures of all the available marriage records from Cabiny (Csebinye), covering the time span 1799-1914 and currently I am feeding them into a database which will be available on request to anyone interested.
At present the years 1821-1846 are already converted. I hope to be able to have the time span 1799-1859 ready by this Christmas. Unfortunately there is a gap in the records covering the years 1860-61 and 1863-67. Except those years, however, the line goes uniterrupted till present days.
Such a conversion is not an easy task, since the first twenty years are written in Church Slavonic (Cyrillic), the rest in Latin and/or Hungarian. Fortunately I know all the necessary languages. Sometimes the handwriting is scarcely legible but I am helped by the fact that I was born there and know what names to expect. Many names are alive up today, many of them I remember since my childhood.
I have chosen marriages because there are much less marriages than births and deaths and they represent the most important events for genealogical research. They connect those who lived up to adulthood (for majority it was just a sheer luck) and who have born another generations. Birth records serve to prove the birth of a specific person and deaths support the belief that the one who was born has not died in childhood.
Maybe I will write a book on Cabiny. Who knows ...
