Szabo from Szatmar (County), Hungary
I'm descended of the Szabo family who lived in Szatmarhegy, Szatmar, Hungary and am seeking others who are descended of the same lineage who are also researching the family's interesting genealogy.
My great grandmother was named Eszter Szabo (Esther Sabo in America). She was born in Szatmarhegy in 1895 and emmigrated from there to Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1909. She died in 1990 in Galesburg, Michigan. In 1912 she married Anton Ginder / Gunther aka Gendher in Kalamazoo. He was from the village of Hodoni, Temes, Hungary and of German ancestry.
Eszter's parents were Andras and Eleonora (Bozso) Szabo (known as Andrew "Andy" and Eleanora Sabo in America). Her father was born in Szatmarhegy in 1869 to Imre and Sara(Kallai) Szabo. They were the parents of many children, most of which died in infancy or childhood except: Agnes (b 1858), Antal (b. 1866), Eszter (b 1871) and Imre (b 1873). Imre (Junior) came to America with brother Andras - in the US he was known as James. The only other information I have on my Szabo family is that Imre's (Senior) father was named Jozsef Szabo. For simplicity purposes, I have removed all of the appropriate accents to the Hungarian names.
