Searching for more info on family of Istvan Oravecz (Oravezz, Orovecz, Oravitz) & Roza (Rosa, Rozalia) Karacson (Karacsonyi). Have found baptism records for 9 children 1867 - 1885 in Somogy, primarily Nagyatád & Csokonya. Included is my husband's gggrandfather Joszef, bapt. March 22, 1870. Joszef supposedly married a Theresa (Tereza?) Kovacs and had at least 2 sons before immigrating with them to the US between 1903 & 1908 (Theresa supposedly died?). Sons names in US are Anton F. Oravez & Gabriel Frank Oravez. Anton born May 2, 1895 in Rinyaujlak. 2nd or maybe 3rd wife for Joszef is Julia Harschka (Heraska), married about 1907 or 1908 (there is also a 1910 marriage record for them in Wisconsin USA.) Any further info would be appreciated - especially where to search Hungary marriage records if possible.

jmbarry,
Rinyaujlak R.Cath. records are with Csokonya: https://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermai...

Civil Registration in Hungary started Oct.1895, still Church Records can be researched after that date in the County Archives, of which Somogy County are most helpful, they actually do research for a very reasonable fee schedule.

Last year did a research in the same general areas, enclosing couple pictures from Tarany.
Hope this helps.
Joseph

Thank you! I'm thinking that I will need to see what is actually on the microfilm rolls that LDS has for Somogy county Roman Catholic records. The listing for the microfilm roll says birth, baptism, marriage & death records. But the only searchable items on FamilySearch.org are the baptism records. So I don't know if the roll actually has more on it than the baptism records or not, as they have both have the same name and there is a link to the familysearch database from the roll description page. I've found I believe all the baptism records that are helpful to me at this point. Im now hoping for marriage & death records.

You're welcome, if the May 1895 marriage date is correct, this film should include: "Kereszteltek, házasultak, halottak 1875-1895 VAULT INTL Film 699956"
