hello!

my name is peter.i have mapped up my ancestors on my grandfather`s side all the way till 1846-ish.Have a marriage certificate from 1873 where the place of the groom`s origin is Zdounek(in the Austro-hungarian Empire there was a small village called Zdounek in Moravia).No hungarian village matches at all the word which is quite difficult to read.From history i realized that they brought people to Hungary from Moravia to settle down at the time.The village is now called" Zdounky, Kroměříž, Zlínský kraj, Czechia".On FS there are a couple of Land registers only from there and my ancestors were peasents so they didn`t own land.On websearch found a person in Zdounky with the surname but unable to contact him.Looked for the surrounded villages for birth certificates,and the only one i found is a town nearby but no luck with my ancestors(find more matching surnames though).hit a brick wall! not sure what to do!!!Any suggestion would be appraciated!

 

Ancestor`s Name is Anton(Antal) Melicharik

FamilySearch ID G416-RZ8

Birth certificate number 5 Father`s name with origin says zdaneki lakos(means from Zdanek)

    The parish registers for Zdounky are held at the Brno archives and they have been digitized. You can access them here: https://www.mza.cz/actapublica/matrika/hledani_obec?search_by_obec=Zdounky. You can change the language to English at the top.
