1869 Hungarian Census — Gazetteer of Szepes Magye

By Marelynn Zipser

This gazetteer of Szepes Magye was compiled for the 1869 Hungarian Census Database Project by Marelynn Zipser.

The 6 districts (járás) of Szepes county (magye) are Banya, Locse, Hernadvolgy, Tatra, Popradvolgy, and Magura.

No data was available for the 13 cities with their own magistrates: Bela, Gnezda, Iglo, Leibicz, Lublo, Podolin, Poprad, Szepes-Olaszi, Szepes-Szombat, Szepes-Varalja, Golnicz, Kesmark, and Locse.  They all had large Jewish populations.

Below is a compilation of information from the 1877 Hungarian Gazetteer Magyarország helységnévtára tekintettel a közigatási, népességi és hitfelekezeti viszonyokra.  The table gives each locality's Hungarian name, the current Slovakian name, the Hungarian járás (district), the location of the synagogue where the Jewish records were kept, the number of Jews in 1877, and the specific FHL microfilm numbers for the 1869 census.  The 1877 Hungarian Gazetteer is available at the LDS Family History Library [943.9 E5d], and also via all LDS Family History Centers (microfilm #599,564; or on 19 microfiche, #6000840).
