In light of our website's recent launch within the past month, our name re-branding, as well as our Facebook group reaching 7,000 members and it also being Memorial Day, we thought we would offer a sale on professional research services to help members trace their family history, build family trees, or solve genealogical mysteries.
It took several years to get the website back up, and it still needs some work, but we are now offering the same tens of thousands of indexed and transcribed material that was previously available; there are nearly 70,000 marriage records alone.
Current Projects at Magyar Roots:
Gazetteer Maps
- These are slowly being updated. The Jewish gazetteer map is mostly done, concerning Hungary-proper and Slovakia, with details about content in several Romanian archives.
- The Roman Catholic gazetteer map is currently comprised of Abaúj-Torna, Bereg, Borsod, Gömör, Hont, Sáros and Ung counties.
Surname Database
- Our former website had a Surname Database, where researchers could contribute the surnames and localities in which they were researching, in hopes of making connections with others researching either the same surnames or localities. We are working on bringing this back.
Search Form
- It would be significantly easier to be able to search the mass amount of data presented by our website through a search form. My goal is for it to be a detailed form that allows for many search variables; such as surname, year range, localities, keywords, etc.
Memorial Day Sale
To highlight this progress and what is expected to come, we have decided to offer our largest sale yet - 50% off! Research is currently conducted at $40/hour, which would make the sale price $20/hour.
All client research projects vary greatly, ranging from small to large, depending entirely on what you're ultimately seeking to discover. Does your family have a story that needs verification? Are you struggling with the language barrier when presented with digitized documents? We can help you!
Send us a message through our Contact Form explaining what kind of research you're interested in having completed. We will conduct preliminary research, free of charge, to determine record availability and get a general idea of the scope of the project. We will then report back to you with a synopsis of our preliminary research and an estimate for the project.
This Memorial Day sale for 50% off research is active from Monday, May 27th until Friday, May 31st. Please contact us before then to lock in this sale offer
