Can someone please help me translate the back of two photo's I have found in my family photo's. I know that they are in Hungarian, but that is it.

Thank you in advance for your assistance

Sorry Photo did not loat

Julia Szent-Györgyi

József Halász, your great-grandfather, at age 70. My dear good father. This is how I knew him and I remember him clearly. I was 9 years old when he died.

Grandma

This also was taken of an old picture by your little brother B. b. and my Gyuluka.

This photograph is a reproduction of an oil painting from 1832: it depicts József Halász, your great-grandfather (my father), who was at that time chief comptroller of Tolna county (later a home-guard hussar major). I had it made so that if the original is destroyed, a record will remain of it.

I'm not completely certain of my reading of the post-"Grandma" part of the top inscription. (If I'm right, "Gyuluka" is an endearment/diminutive of the masculine name Gyula, which is often equated with or translated as Julius, although it's actually an old Hungarian name with zero relation to the Roman one.)

Transcriptions:

Halász József, dédnagyapád

70 éves korában, az én drága jó

édesapám. Ilyennek ismertem és

tisztán emlékszem rá. 9 éves voltam

amikor meghalt.

Nagymama

Ezt is egy régi képről vette le B. b.

öcséd meg Gyulukám.

Ez a fénykép egy

1832-i olajfestmény

reprodukciója. Halász József

Dédnagyapádat (az én

édes apámat) ábrázolja,

aki az időben Tolnavárme-

gye főszámvevője volt (ké-

sőbb honvéd huszár őrnagy).

Azért vétettem le, hogy ha

az eredeti megsemmisülne

emlék maradjon róla.
