Arvoy - Arvai....which is it?

gregory — 7 Aug 2003 10:05:03 GMT

My surname is Arvoy and as far as I know it has always been. I wonder, does anyone here recognize this name? It seems as though if my grandfather came to the states and his name became Arvai then there may be two names here?

I am looking for Arvoy from Hunary. My grandfather emigrated to the states in 1906 to Port Huron Michigan. His mother was named elisabeth.

Anyone care to take an educated stab at some possible help in this?

(2) Brothers(ARVAY) marrying (2) sisters(MUSHINSKY)

sjjbrickse — 28 Feb 2005 12:04:11 GMT

I would be interested in knowing information on two brothers marrying two sisters.

George ARVAY married Helen (nee) MUSHINSKY, on 11 Nov.,1938 in St. Mary's R.C. Church, Passaic, N.J.
Helen was born on 27 May, 1915.
One known child: Dennis.

Joseph ARVAY married Elizabeth (nee) MUSHINSKY, on 12 Oct., 1940 in the same church, in Passaic.
Eloizabeth was born on 20 May, 1917.
One known child: Maryanne.

Helen and Elizabeth's parents were John E. MUSHINSKY(Jr.) and Mary (nee) SPAK.
There is one brother, (Rev. Fr.) John E. Mushinsky III (living).

I do not know these brothers parents' names, or any more about them, or their families.

Helen died 16 Nov., 1992, in Brick, N.J.
Elizabeth died 11 Mar., 1972, in N.J.

Thanks, in advance,

Arvai (Arvay?)

VBullock7604 — 28 Jun 2005 2:31:46 GMT

I am looking for information on my grandfather and grandmother. His name Istvan Arvai, hers is Mary Veres or Beres. I have no information but their names and birth place of Budapest or Austria, Hungary. Please contact me at my Email address if you have any information.

Arvai...Arvoy?

gregor — 20 Apr 2002 8:45:00 GMT

My surname is Arvoy, is this a variation of Arvai? I was once told that the names were changd when the immigrants arrived to americanize the names.

secondly, also I was told from a professor at the U. of Mich. that the name in hungarian ending with the spelling " ai" meant onewas from the lower nobility, the landed aristocracy.

My grandfather emigrated through Port Huron Mich, eventually to settle in Michigan

Can anyone help to clarify/varify/add to these three points.

thanks

Juda Arvay - Died Stillwater, NJ 1799

TinaKepp — 13 Oct 2004 7:36:15 GMT

I attached a photo of a beautiful stone to this message. I don't know anything about this woman, but I do love her stone. It reads Juda Arvay- Died Feb. 27, 1799 age 44 years. "God has laid up in heaven for me, a crown which can not fade. The righteous judge at that great day, shall place it on me head". I always visit her stone when I am at the cemetery because I love it so. If anyone knows where she came from, I would love to have documentation for her. This is in Stillwater, New Jersey, USA.

My great great grandfather Michael Arvay was born in Sacurov, northeast of Kosice, in 1813. He married a Maria Viszokai on 5-2-1833. They had 8 children, Mike, Jan, Maria, Andrej, Juraj, Maria(Again), and twins Adam and my great grandfather Pavol. Pavol married a Alzbeta Gyuricsko on Nov 25, 1874. She was from Krivany. They had four children, Paul, Elizabeth (my Grandmother), Anna, and Susan. They came to the USA in the late 1800's and settled in the hard coal region in a town called Jeddo. (not sure of spelling)I am not sure what happened to Paul, but my grandmother came to Indiana Co, Pa. and married my grandfather Mike Rostis or Rostas. Anna first marriage was to a Nick Celmo. After his death she married a Guy Cecconi and settled in Mich. Does anyone have any info. about the above. I have info that mr great grandfathers twin brother Adam also came to the US unknown where. Thanks, Nick

Added info. My grandmothers sister Susan was married at the age of 13 years to a coal miner. The info I received is that he killed her and her new born daugther with a miners boot. He was upset because she had a girl.

One more Arvai note

Gerald Arvay — 27 Nov 1999 7:48:24 GMT

One more piece of info-Andrew was a third
brother to Janos and Istvan. Please leave a post for me if you have anything to add.

Istvan Arvai

Gerald Arvay — 25 Nov 1999 10:59:57 GMT

My grandmother Mary Arvai's maiden name was
Csontas, rather than Beres, and was married to Janos/John Arvai. However, Janos's brother was named Istvan, who settled in the
northern mid-west US. I would suspect around Chicago, as I believe a number of Arvays landed there, including Andrew, who was the basis for a character in the book "The Day the Bubble Burst." Szirmabesnyo,outside of Miskolc, was the village where they last lived in Europe, and where Janos is buried.

Mary Arvay

Gerald Arvay — 25 Nov 1999 10:38:00 GMT

Hi.
I'm in Columbia, SC, USA. My father came from a villiage outside of Miskolc in 1929
(great timming). His mother's name was Mary,
but I don't know her maiden name or his father's first name. I'll find out and post when I do.
