Searching for Hungarian History

Searching for Hungarian History

My mother was born in Kentucky. Her parents were from Hungary. On her birth certificate her father's name is listed as Ladl Zvonyik.
The only thing I know about his past is that he entered this country through Canada in approx 1908. Beyond his coming here I know nothing about him or my grandmother, Mary.

I saw an entry looking for info about Zvonyik from Kentucky. My Grandparents lived in Benham Ky. They arrived in the US from Hungary when they were very young. They lived in Caldwell NJ for a while and then moved to KY. Their names were Laslo and Mary Zvonyik. Her maiden name I believe was Ungard. My fathers 2nd grade teacher changed the spelling of his last name to Sovonick. From then on the entire family changed their names. Any information would be great.

Douglas, please email me regarding the Sovonick family. My mother was Elizabeth Sovonick. Might I ask who your father is? Sorry it has been awhile since I had time to read the boards.

Hello
My father was Bill Sovonick. We are cousins. How bizarre to meet a cousin online.
Please e-mail me so we can share any known family history and contacts. Hope to talk to you soon.
