[Csaladtortenet 2] Fwd: Question concerning Family Research in Hungary

[koordinátor macse]

Kedves Családkutatók!

Kérlek, hogy lehetőség szerint segítsetek az úrnak! Főleg kecskeméti
lakhelyű kutató lehetne a segítségére, bár lehet, hogy online is
megtalálható, ami továbblendítené a keresésben.

Köszönettel,

Dear Sir or Madam,



I have been advised by a member of a genealogical exchange group on
Facebook to contact you.



I am writing a PhD dissertation in history about a number of
Austro-Hungarian families during WWI, and I am kind of stuck.



I have found information that one of the family members, Izidor Neubauer,
died in November 1919 in Kecskemét. As I need proof that this information
is correct, I have been trying to get a scan of the relevant entry from the
death register from the Hungarian National Archives, District of
Bács-Kiskun, in Kecskemét. They told me that they have the file in the
National Death Register of 1919 of Kecskemét (MNL BKML XXXIII.1.a –
National Death Register of 1919 of Kecskemét, page 249, No. 1494), but they
can’t send me a scan, as this would be against Hungarian law. Apparently, I
can only access this register myself, or find a “Hungarian commissary” who
is a registered researcher at the Kecskemét archives.



As travelling to Hungary for this single scan clearly exceeds my budget, I
was hoping that there might perhaps be someone who could help me. Do you
happen to know any genealogists who go to the Kecskemét archives on a
regular basis and who might be able to make a scan or a transcript of the
death entry for me? Or maybe you have another idea of how it might be able
to get access to this record?



Any help would be highly appreciated! I cannot offer much, except for my
sincere gratitude and a mention in my book’s acknowledgements.



Many thanks in advance and best regards,



Carl-Eric Linsler
