"Hungary" Disambiguation[edit | edit source]

Hungary may refer to:

The present-day country of Hungary.
The Kingdom of Hungary (1526–1867)
Austria-Hungary (1867-1918)

United States census records and arriving passenger lists often simply list the place of birth or origin as "Hungary" or "Austria" meaning the Kingdom of Hungary or Austria-Hungary. Careful research is needed to pinpoint the province and city/town.

To view a map showing the Austrian Empire and Austria-Hungary with the associated provinces, click [https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/images/3/35/Austrian_Provinces.jpg her.

Jewish Research resources on the FamilySearch Wiki are organized primarily by the present-day country, and not by the former designations. If possible, determine the city/town of origin and then search under its present-day country.
