Treboszto, Turocz Megye = county was mapped in 1910 as Kistorboszlo and is now shown as Trebostovo, located 3 km west of Kostany nad Turcom.

To locate places in Europe, especially if you are not sure of the proper spelling of the place name, the best reference is found at http://www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htmhttp://www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htm

1910 HUNGARIAN MAP
The old Hungarian map can be found at: http://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910/turoc.jpghttp://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910/turoc.jpg
SAVE the map on YOUR computer. OPEN the map in any graphics program. CUT and PRINT the relevant section of the map. Otherwise, you just get a corner. This map uses the Hungarian village names that you will likely find in church records.
There may be church records for (nearby) Kostany nad Turcom but the LDS web site keeps reverting a a library book.
