Greek Catholic Birth Records from Lesne, Zemplen, Hungary
Are the Grk Catholic Birth Records from 1896 onwards available online? So far, all I could find were up to 1895. If not, does Kosice, Michalovce, Slovakia have the records and, if so, what entity would they have been transferred to? I've written Pustne-Csmerne Grk Catholic (sp?) who did baptismals for Lesne births but they don't have them.
I need birth records from 1908-1913 approximately. It's for Hungarian citizenship.
If anyone can help, then, I thank you in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

Dvorzsák's gazetteer says Leszna (Lesné) had no church locally, and Greek Catholics were recorded in Márkcsemernye (Pusté Čemerné) and Alsókörtvélyes (Nižný Hrušov). The 1873 official gazetteer says Márkcsemernye for GC and Alsókörtvélyes for RC; the 1892 edition agrees, so I'm not sure what was going on with Dvorzsák's data.
Once civil registration started (on 1 Oct 1895), church registers were no longer official records, but unfortunately, the civil registers are not online anywhere for places that are now in Slovakia. For whatever it's worth, though, both the 1895 and the 1913 gazetteers (https://www.kshkonyvtar.hu/helysegnevtar/1913/helysegnevtar-1913.pdf) say the registry office for Leszna was in Rákócz (Rakovec nad Ondavou).
