Every minor, insignificant data may be of help in our research, so special attention should be paid to conversation with elderly relatives and to their account. This might spare a lot of superfluous and tiring work later on. Old family books should be treated in the same way to find notes, names there. Experience proves that much more documents are in the possession of the family you would think and it is wise to collect and systemize them before any other person of other opinion throws them out. Heraldry, the conscience of Genealogy is nothing else as science dealing with coat of arms of families.
Genealogy is popular in Hungary.
State, municipal, also called civil registering , that is birth, marriage and death registers have been on here since 1895. Church registering of births, marriages and deaths has been going on in Hungary depending on religions and churches since about 1590-1650. A rather small percentage of church registers are indexed. The invaluable material to research which can be found in the archives of the National Archive and the Budapest and county ones may be of immense interest of genealogy researchers. We may proudly claim that the collections themselves, their systems and the way they are organised thanks to the devoted and provided work of our foregoers are , even on a world-wide scale, outstanding.
