Searching for descendents of my grandfather Paul (Pal) Nogrady b. Jan 1881 in Budapest, Hungary; m. Feb. 1904 in Cleveland, Ohio to Mary Bodnar; d.Jan 1960 in Cleveland, Ohio. He had a sister, Elizabeth (married name unknown) and a brother, George. George had 3 children, Emil, Julius and Irene. That's all the info I have. I believe George and Elizabeth lived in the Fairport Harbor, Painesville, OH area. Paul, his wife and children (Fred, Gizella, Olga) lived in Cleveland. Only Olga (Ollie), my mother remains. Also I have no information on Paul's parents or grandparents but supposedly they were from the Budapest area.

Not related and not researching. You might do better if you post on a General board as this is a Nograd megye / county board.
The old 1910 Hungarian megye map is at :

Take a look in Ellis Island website. You might locate some other NOGRADYs that might be related to you.
To locate an EI manifest in One Step and especially when you know a name of a town use :

You need to locate a name of a town in order to proceed with the research. Take a look in Ellis Island website. You need to register but no money.

Hungary's phone site www.matav.hu/english/index.html

Thank you for all of your info.....much appreciated!

Your welcome, Paul
Wish I knew what you know or have in way of websites so I would know what to forward or not.

LOL....send anything...all I have is what you have given me other than the Ellis Island site. I am still trying to figure out if my last name is it's original spelling and such. I know it means "from Nograd" but that is all. It seems like all Nograd descendants are from Nograd...so I don't know how relations work.

The old 1910 Hungarian megye map is at :
http://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910 Click on Nograd megye to see the towns.
A good locator is or to locate a town with present name www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htm
You know that you start the family tree with yourself and going backwards to the ancestor that came from the "old country". ( I know you know) :) (smile)
You need to establish a name of a town that your ancestor came from.
Take a look in Ellis Island at NOGRADIs and NOGRADYs.
The Hungarian phone site www.matav.hu/english/index.html is listing NOGRADI and NOGRADY. Both spellings can also be found in Slovak Republic's phone book. www.zoznamst.sk
Post on all the boards that apply to your surname. www.rat.de/kuijsten/navigator
www.google.com a search engine
In 1990 census of names in Poland there was 1 NOGRADI. The LDS-Mormons have filmed the church records but you need the name of a town and religious orientation of your ancestor to order the records from which you can gather ancestral information.

WOW...thank you! How do you know all of this info. not even being a Nogrady or related at all? Take care!

Your welcome.
