Thank you. I had never heard of this resource. I look forward to using it to learn more about my family.

[Dusty Fletcher]

Arcanum proved to have a great resource with the Hungarian Reformed Church newspapers (Amerikai Magyar Reformátusok Lapja) it has preserved. I found descriptions of my great-grandfather’s church involvement in Dayton, Ohio, his second marriage, multiple deaths of children, and more. Also, I downloaded copies of the papers to share with my children.

At present I’m delving into the history of some ancient surnames in its sources.

[Linda Bukszar]

Wonderful resource to learn about. I will use it. Never heard about Arcanum, but now I will now turn to it for information!! Your presentation was great and you are a very poised speaker.

[Raymond Sosnowski]

Very interesting. Have you considered the Diaspora publications in America? I have 2 old issues of Magyar Naptár, and I recall piles of weekly (?) newspapers in Hungarian.

[Michelle Gnesda]

Yes I agree. A useful tool to persue Hungarian records/maps . I am happy to hear they are increasing their materials to other countries for research as well. I look forward to seeing what is on there for my family!

[Marianna]

This is a fabulous research tool! What a gift for those looking for their relatives of the past in Hungary and beyond!
Great presentation by a lovely lady who was so very clear and concise and had an amazing PowerPoint presentation!
