Can anyone translate the cause of death for the last entry—Joszef Herczeg. Starts with an E….

Julia Szent-Györgyi · June 3

Elmezavar: "mind disturbance" — derangement, insanity, psychosis, dementia.

Thank you. Sad news. He was 52.

Julia Szent-Györgyi · June 4

Yeah, I noticed that, as that's exactly my current age. :-/

A cause of death of mental illness or dementia always feels like a euphemism, though; I just never know what for.

susan herceg · June 4

I agree. It could have been a brain tumor causing crazy behavior. His son, Josef, born in 1867, committed suicide at age 60 in the US or he was drunk when he laid on RR tracks.

Hello, again! I need translation help.

"Vas, Hungary Records," images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939V-KGSJ-X6 : June 14, 2024), image 91 of 184; Magyar Országos Levéltár. It is the entry of Rozalia on October 1, 1870. I believe this is the person I have searched for. Although, her headstone in MI says she was born 10/1/1871. Her children may have thought her birth year was 1871!

Number 6. 18 May 1891.
Groom and bride: József Herczeg, day-laborer, Szummer Rozália.
Place of origin and residence: Bejcz, Egervölgye / Bejcz
Religion: RC
Age: 24, 21

Observations (Parents): József Herczeg, Juli Zsoldos, István Szummer, Erzsébet Velladics, RC.

Rozália's siblings:
Anna https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VZL2-NK4
Péter https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VZL2-SCJ
Veronica Jozefa https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VZL2-3HN

The index does not have an István married to an Erzsébet with anything remotely like the right surnames, so she was clearly Éva and the marriage entry simply got it wrong.

Thank you so much. I found the baptismal record by going thru images from the town. but you found her marriage! I thought Anna was a sibling too!
