Re: Kiraly- Chicago group

DotsonCathie — 2012-06-02 12:37:01Z

Marion,
I only know that there is a group from Chicago that I believe descends from Frank Kiraly.
With Kiraly a very common name all over Hungary, there are many different groups.
If I remember correctly you have asked me for info before, I have given you what I had. I wish I could help you more.
Good Hunting

Sorry, I don't get on the message boards very often. It is me that posted the photos. They are now in my Joseph Ferenc Kiraly Tree.
I do not have info on Bert. After you sent me the email, I looked into history on Bertram on Ancestry. Just found the basics that I am sure you probably have.
Good luck on your search.

What an interesting piece of possible family history. My line is not from this Kiraly family. I hope that you will someday be able to confirm this bit of history.

Hello,

I have an unusal story about the Kiraly's. A boy named Duilio Kiraly stayed with my German mother in Frankfurt, Germany in the 1950's. Her stepfather was the 2nd husband to a beautiful German fashion model, last name Muth (google:muth Duilio de Kiraly). She worked for Jacques Fath in the House of Fath in Paris during the 1930's and 40's. Muth's 1st husband was a handsome Hungarian actor named Kiraly. They lived in Paris,France and had two children, Barbara and Duilio. Eventually they divorced. Kiraly was a member of the French Resistance against Germany, who occupied France at the time. Muth remarried my mother's step-father Hermann Staiger, a German Luftwaffe Flying Ace, who was stationed in Paris. Rumor has it Kiraly was infuriated by the marriage and was suspected of murdering Muth and her dog in her French Chateau while her two little children Barbara and Duilio were in the house. Many presumed the incident was a casualty of war, the French Resistance possibly, however many suspected Kiraly. I think it might have even gone to trial but I don't know. My mother recalls Duilio never overcoming this. I'm not sure whatever happened to Duilio and Barbara, but maybe there is a connection, the name and location and "taboo" seem to fit. I don't know if this helps but would love to see what you know. Please write back at mayertriplets@yahoo.com if you have any questions. Good luck. Carmen Mayer

Looking for the person that posted 3 pictures of Victoria Eichler Kiraly on Ancestry's Public Member Photos & Scanned Documents.

Might you have any info on Victoria's older brother, Bert?

Re: Kiraly, Victor

lejo2 — 2011-09-06 20:27:10Z

I have only a little info on a Victor Kiraly, born in 1887 in Katymar, Hungary - parents were Emericus Kiraly and Maria Siegmund(Sigmond). He had 4 siblings, Adelbertus Bela, born 1890, Otto Johannes, born 1891, Isabella, born 19893, and Cornelius Kiraly, born 1888.

Cornelius (Cornel, Kornel) came to Canada in 1926, and lived in Vancouver, BC. He returned to Hungary during WW2 to fight in the underground, was apparently captured by Germans, tortured, and eventually returned to Vancouver, where he died in 1956.

Hope this helps, if you are still looking.

He had 65-66 old and is a bohemian man. The last 10years lived in Spain but I don't know anything the last 2 years. Bye

This would be my uncle but as far as I know he never worked for the railroad. His father, Frank, did but not Louis.

Re: lodialous kiraly

Bieliauskaite — 2010-05-09 00:19:57Z

He seems to be listed on the 1930 census as Louis Kiraly b. 1918. The 1920 census taken in January listed Lodialous age 1 yr 6 mos, which I estimated puts his birth year as Jun 1918. SSDI shows a Louis Kiraly b. 5/12/1918 died 4/6/2009 Hammond, Lake, IN, railroad benefit. That would seem to be the same person.

Re: My Kiraly family....

DotsonCathie — 2010-04-13 16:15:59Z

Hi Carol,
I located an Alexander W. Kiraly, born July 4, 1879 of Bukzsercz, Hungary. Died August 13, 1963 in Columbus, Franklin, Ohio. Immigrated in 1905. That information was compiled from the 1930 Federal Census and both WWI and WWII draft registration cards. My great grandfather was a Alexander, his hungarian name was Sandor. Just a FYI bit of info for you. We are not related by this Alex/Alexander/Sandor.
The census shows his wife as Rebecca, born in 1884, Hungary, immigrated in 1907. Married about 1902.
William born 1909, in Hungary per the 1930 census, this may be incorrect considering when his parents immigrated.
William and his wife Kateline are living with his parents in 1930.
Carl A., born abt 1912, also in Hungary, is a taxi driver and living with his parents in 1930 also.
All of this was discovered by looking in the online documents. I don't have them listed in my Kiraly line, but that doesn't mean much! My Kiraly's settled first in NYC, then in Cleveland. It was a large family.
Good Hunting!

They had 2 sons, Carl and William. I am the daughter of Carl. Only saw my father once in my life, when I was quite young. The last time I saw my Kiraly grandparents I was 17 or 18 years old, I am now 73. Carl married my mother Lucile Kershner. I really want to know more about my Hungarian heritage. I have been very proud of it all my life. If you have information, email me. Thank You.... Carol

Hello,
I think I am a descendent of the Kiraly line you mention. My grandfather was Daniel Kiraly twin brother of Julius L born in Lelcz Hungary 3 29 99, siblings Joesph, William and Mary Helen. They migrated to NY around 1906. My grandfather died before I was born, and my mother now has Alzheimer's, so it is very difficult for me to gather any other family info other then on this site.

Hi,
I have been slowly searching for my father Ernest Kiraly. Ernest served in the 7th Defense Battalion WW II from 1942 to 1944 or 45 in the south pacific.
He may have been born 1925.
It's along shot but if anyone knows anything about him I would really appreciate your help.

God Bless

tomjkraft — 2008-08-23 16:14:52Z

Hi,

My great grandparents are Paul and Katherine Kiraly (both born in 1855) of Cleveland, OH. They immigrated to the US in 1874 and 1886 respectively and lived in/near Schenectady, NY before coming to Cleveland with their 4 possibly 5 children. Both their parents came from Hungary. I'm having a hard time finding anything prior back into Hungary, except that they either spoke or came from Magyar (Census). If anyone has any information about this thread, like Katherine's maiden name or further info back to Hungary, please don't hesitate to contact us. I have heard my family say that a relative was a cook for Franz Joseph.

Thank you.

Re: Michael and Theresa Horvath Kiraly

masa1211 — 2008-04-21 05:16:19Z

I don't know if I can help you, but I will give you some information that may be of interest to you. I have a sister named Helen whom, it was rumored, had a son but I never knew what happened to him. She also had two girls who were put up for adoption (not put in an orphanage) They were both born before 1959. I don't know where they are now. but my sister was contacted by them many years ago and did meet with them. I don't think she has had contact with them for many years though. Helen is a Kiraly by birth, so your father could not be a Joseph Scott Kiraly. If she is your mother, she may have named you after our father whose name was Joseph and gave you the family name of Kiraly. If you think that this information is helpful to you, let me know and I will call her to get some information and ask if she would like you to contact her.I would like to know what was said in the note and would like to see a copy of it, so I could verify her handwriting.

I have a hand written letter written by Helen Kirely, that gave custody to the murphys even though he was never legally adopted was actually handed over on the streets. I have been trying to locate my family for years and this is the closest ive come. Please reply when you get this regardless of the outcome. Call or leave a message @ (614)304-3894 please call asap. thank you so much and God bless you. I need closure and this could benifit you as well . Thanks Audie Murphy (Joseph Scott Kirely)

I am researching my great great grandmother. Her name was Sophia Kiraly, born around 1888. She married Frank P. Laslo. I believer her father was Solvan Kiraly and her mother was Youzsa Crill. If anyone has any information on this family it would be greatly appreciated.

I have no experience in doing research in Canada.
I have some search engines and websites which might be of help.

www.rat.de/kuijsten/navigator
http://vivisimo.com
www.munky.com
www.pikpuk.com

Hungary's phone site is at :
www.matav.hu/english/index.html

Steve is Istvan in Magyar language.
Here is a first name translation website:
www.fam.aust.com/topolcsany/names

The LDS-Mormons (Family History Center) have filmed the church records of Hungary but being that this is so recent, your father's birth, I am not sure how you would go about finding that information in Budapest. You could consider hiring a researcher in Hungary to go to the archive. Hopefully someone on Hungary's board will give you the information you need to research.

Lajos B: abt 1872 and Elizabeth (Erzi) Nanasi (?) B: abt. 1880. Immigrated from Gulacs (Gulass) in 1904/05. Their dau:Zofia B: 1900, dau-Ida B: 1905 and son-Lajos B:1904 came over in 1921. There is supposed to be daugs-Anna and or Berta left in Hungary. They came to MCKeesport, Pa. then to Morgantown, W. Va. then to Indiana Harbor, In. in the 20's without Elizabeth-she apparently died outside of Ind. Any help would be great.

Re: Kiraly

Carolynn_Brehmer — 2005-09-11 01:59:08Z

Hi- I too am a descendant of a Kiraly-Lajos (Louis King) from the MCKeesport, Pa. area to East Chicago, In. His wife was named Elizabeth. According to census info he arrived in 1904/5. They had children in HUngary, W. Va. and Pa. Louis born abt. 1871/72 and Elizabeth b: abt.1880. Elizabeth died between census years -I find them in 1910 and 1930. No record in 1920 at all. They supposedly had 7 children. Any of this sound familiar?
