Hi Sandor

Have you tried Research Wiki? Log into FamilySearch and click on the Search tab on the FamilySearch bar and the in the drop down tab click on Research Wiki. You will see a map page, click on List of all locations, then scroll down to to Romania and click. This will take you to the Romanian Genealogy page. A "Guide to Romania ancestry, family history, and genealogy: birth records, marriage records, death records, census records, family history, and military records."

There are two tabs one for Romanian Online Genealogy Sites and one for Ask the Community.

The page also has a map showing all the Romanian Counties, Nagyszalonta or, as it is called in Romania, Salonta is in the Bihor county.

In the right hand column are links to various record collections.

I hope this is of some help for you in your research, best of luck.

Best regards

Cedar
