Tolna County
This village was settled as early as 1720 by Heidebauern from Western Hungary in Moson County and were closely related to the Lutheran congregation in Györköny where many of their baptisms and marriages are listed as well as in the Roman Catholic parish records in Paks. The congregation was placed under the jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic priest in Kajdács but many sought out the Lutheran pastors in the area. In 1761 the congregation was allowed to have a Levite Lehrer who began the baptismal/birth records in that year. When the congregation legal status under the terms of the Edict of Toleration came into effect families in other communities had their children baptized here as well from: Szent Ivan, Vájta, Cece, Kajdács, Szent Miklos, Dorog, Györe, Sárszentlörinc, Györköny and Somodor.
The marriage register begins in 1763 and includes families intermarrying from: Györköny, Szent Miklos, Harta, Dorog, Felsö Nána, Bogárdi, Kölesd, Pálfa, Izmény, Gyönk, Varsád, Batászék, Szent Ivan, Paks, Kajdács, Tapi, Lajos Komárom, Némedi, Rác Almas, Somogydöröcske, Kér, Kistormás, Rác Kozar, Kisszekély, Pandi, Duna Földvar, Bonyhád, Nagyszekély, Sárszentlörinc, Tengelec and Vajta.
