Interested in family ties in Slovakia (former Hungary), Scotland, and Ireland. Now retired, my genealogy interests started at a young age, when my grandmother and parents would let me categorize the family's historical documents. I loved digging through my grandmother's closets, which served to both get rid of junk and find great family documents. The best was a letter, in Hungarian, written to her by her mother, who was living in their Pennsylvania home. That letter had the background they used for their Naturalization applications, and I was able to find the family, originally from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, now Slovakia.
