Hello Tibor,
My name is Zoltan Kovacs from Budapest, Hungary. My grandmother, Cecilia Machan (born in 1912 in the village called Fél, located currently in Slovakia near Bratislava) told me that in the family there was a horse racer (called Tibor Machan) who died from the injuries of falling from a horse. Probably this is the same person about whom you heard.
My grandmother's family has "multinational" background. They are from Graz (Austria), Prague (Bohemia = Czech Republic), Bratislava (Slovakia) and from Hungary. In the family there were several building/construction professionals.
When did your father leave Hungary? Do you know relatives in Central Europe (Austria, Checz Republic, Slovakia, Hungary)?
