BASIC RESEARCH HELP
For basic research help, be sure to visit Bill Tarkulich’s excellent site at http://www.iabsi.com/gen/public/http://www.iabsi.com/gen/public/
Here's an excerpt from the LDS listing of church records. "Nová Bystrica, Slovakia, formerly Új-Beszterecze, Trencsén, Hungary."
It's time to practice your Latin.
Locus Domicilii cum Nro Domus = Location of home and its number. = Nová Bystrica #375.
If you study the church records from 1789-1895 for that house and family names, you will have a wealth of information.
CHURCH RECORDS AT LATTER DAY SAINTS (MORMON) LDS FAMILY HISTORY CENTER (FHC)
The Mormons have been microfilming historic vital records worldwide for decades as part of their mission. The Mormons make their collection available to anyone for viewing at their Family History Centers (FHC). The microfilms are stored in Salt Lake City. When you visit a center, you can "rent" a microfilm, by paying a small fee (abt. $5 per film). The center will order the film on your behalf and notify you when it arrives at their center. You can then use reserve the microfilm readers to view these records.
There's one more thing to keep in mind about the FHC. For the most part, the FHC volunteers will know NOTHING about research in Slovakia or about the contents of the films. The volunteer may know about his/her own heritage, but that is about it. That's where you need groups like this to point you in the right direction.
When searching for genealogical information, knowing the birth village is paramount because records are organized by village not nationally, so it is not possible to search on a national basis. It is also necessary to know the religion. To locate church records for Slovakia, knowing the village/town name, go to the LDS web site: www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHLC/frameset_fhlc.aspThe church records cover baptisms (krsteni), marriages (sobeseni) and deaths (zomreli).
LDS has Roman Catholic parish registers of baptisms, marriages and deaths for Nová Bystrica, Slovakia, formerly Új-Beszterecze, Trencsén, Hungary. Text in Latin and Hungarian.

LOCATE YOUR NEAREST FAMILY HISTORY CENTER AND ORDER FILM
You can go to the LDS web site to locate your nearest Family History Center (FHC) and determine their hours of operation. You will need to go there in person to order the film(s). In about a month, the film will arrive and you can book a film reader and begin your research.
