FAQ

I’m interested in Germans settlements in the 18 century. Are there any roll-call lists of families that settled in?

The National Archives of Hungary keep files about Chamber – royal - settlements originated during the period between 1749-1785. About private settlements, settlement contracts in the private family archives can be helpful, ecclesiastical settlement lists are available in the local church archives. The Banat resettlement documents prior to 1778 are in Vienna . The subsequent documents highly rejected, from the rejection protocols only the fact of settlement can be established without any additional information. Find more under the Family research menu.
