Henry and Cecelia Magaziner Magaziners of Humenne Updated 7/27/2010

Other Magaziners

The Hungarian Magaziners and their descendants listed on the Descendant Tree and Collateral Lines include the overwhelming majority of Hungarian Magaziners I've found in Hungarian and American records. There are many Magaziners of Russian or Polish ancestry in the States, but these are the only ones that I can trace back to Hungary.

There are still a few Hungarian Magaziners that I have not yet managed to link to the tree. Some of them are rather clearly related, even though I haven't documented how, such as Fani Magaziner Meisels, who was born in Humenne, whose children have some common family names, and whose husband and son appear as witnesses at the birth or wedding of known relatives. On the other hand, Lujza Magaziner, who comes from a part of Hungary far from Humenne and whose family does not have any of the recurring family names, may not be related. On the other other hand, I thought Jozsef Magaziner was from a town too remote to be related, until I saw records saying that he was born in Humenne, and was the son of Samuel.

I have listed below all of the Magaziners I have found that I have not yet been able to connect and everything I know about them. If you know anything about these other Magaziners, or other Magaziners who have their origins in Austria/Hungary/Slovakia (not Russia or Poland), please email me!

Magaziner, Aug. (b. Abt. 1880)
A 7-year-old Aug. Magaziner appears in the immigrant ship manifest in the middle of our Magaziner: below Heinr. (Henry) and Hanni (Anna) and above Wilh. (William), Netty (Nellie) and Zieli (Cecelia). He is a bit too young to be Louis, and much too young to be Anthony or Hugo, so this does not appear to be one of Henry and Cecelia's children. This may be a relative who was traveling with them, or it may be an unrelated child who was mistakenly listed as a Magaziner. I have found no evidence of an Aug. Magaziner in America.
Magaziner, Bindfeld Ilona (b. 1897, d. 1898)
Kozma Utcai Izraelita Temeto in Budapest records the burial of a "Magaziner Bindfeld Ilona." There are other Magaziners buried in that cemetery, but there are no Magaziners buried anywhere near the location of her grave. It is not clear whose child she might be, or whether she is related. It is not even clear what the proper form of her name should be.
Magaziner, Carl (b. Abt. 1882)
A 5-year-old Carl Magaziner appears in the immigrant ship manifest in the middle of the Magaziner family that is the subject of this site: below Heinr. (Henry) and Hanni (Anna) and above Wilh. (William), Netty (Nellie) and Zieli (Cecelia). He is a bit too young to be Louis, and much too young to be Anthony or Hugo, so this does not appear to be one of Henry and Cecelia's children. This may be a relative who was traveling with them, or it may be an unrelated child who was mistakenly listed as a Magaziner. I have found no evidence of a Carl Magaziner in America who was born before 1900.
Magaziner, Chaje (b. abt. 1867, d. 12/1/1873)
A six-year-old Chaje Magaziner died in Humenne on 12/1/1873. She appears in the Humenne death registry, but I have found no other information about her and have no other information connecting her to this tree. The death registry does not identify her parents. This is a different person than Lob's daughter Chaje, who was born in 1845.
Magaziner, Edit (b. 1910, d. 1920)
Kozma Utcai Izraelita Temeto in Budapest records the burial of an Edit Magaziner. She is possibly buried with Aurel Magaziner, son of Dr. Jozsef, though the record is not clear: it indicates that Aurel and his wife are buried in Plot 19, Row 21, Grave 17, while Edit is buried in Plot 19A, Row 21, Grave 17, but Plot 19A doesn't appear on the map and may be a transcription error. Edit was certainly the right age to be a child of Aurel (b. 1878) and his wife (b. 1881), but I have not yet found records to confirm that.
Magaziner, Ester (bore a child around 1847)
Ester Magaziner is listed as the mother of the bride in an 8/17/1864 Ujhely Hungary marriage record. Ester's husband, father of the bride, is Jakob Klein. Their daughter, bride Johana Klein, was 17 years old at the time of the marriage, and was born in Humenne. Given the approximate date of Johana's birth, Ester may be a bit old to be Henry's sister, but could be an aunt or a cousin. There is an 1851 death record for an Ester Klein, age 40, which may or may not be her. If this is her, she is the right age to be a sister of Samuel (born 1813) and Anchell (who had a son in 1836), and she lived on the same street as Löwi. Johana Klein married Moritz Schon in Sátoraljaújhely, the same town where Emil spent his later years, so there is likely a connection between these two Magaziners. Also, when Lajos and Gyula were travelling to the U.S., their contact in New York was Eugen Schon, possibly a member of this family, whom Gyula described as a cousin. Johana and Moritz appear to have had many children over the next 25 years: birth records for Luisa (b. 9/29/1865), Mali (b. 9/5/1868), Jakob (b. 8/17/1870), Armin (b. 8/28/1872), Samuel (b. 1/17/1875) Helen (b. 1/9/1877), Jeremias (b. 12/27/1878), Szeren (b. 11/1/1880), Adolf (b. 10/21/1882), Henrik (b. 9/29/1884), Dezso (b. 8/3/1887) and Erzsebet (b. 10/3/1889) all have parents with names consistent with this couple. The 1869 census shows Mor and Anna (Klein) Schon, probably this couple, with two daughters, Sina and Malvina, probably the first two children for whom there are birth records.
Magaziner, Ester (b. abt. 1835 in Humenne; d. 10/16/1883 in Humenne)
The Humenne Jewish death registry records the death of an Ester Magaziner (it is transcribed in JewishGen's Hungarian database as Magarnin, but the original record looks like Magaziner to me). She died in Humenne on October 16, 1883, at the age of 48, and was born in Humenne. That page of the registry does not provide any other information, so it is not clear who her parents were, whether she was married, or whether Magaziner was a married name. This could be Samuel's third wife, Eszter Jacubovits, who died between 1869 (when she appeared in the Hungarian census) and 1890 (when Samuel died as a widower), though the census said she was born in Zeteny in 1830. No one else yet identified would match this Ester Magaziner's information.
Magaziner, Eszti (b. 1844)
Eszti Magaziner Lange appears in the 1869 Hungarian census with Moritz Lange (b. 1837, presumably her husband) and Hainrich Lange (b. 1869, presumably her son). They are living in Nagy-Milhaly, located in the same Zemplen district as Humenne and Sátoraljaújhely, and are probably connected. Eszti is probably Samuel's daughter Eszter, who was born in 1845, though there is no evidence of this other than the name and approximate age.
Magaziner, Fani (b. 1824 in Humenne; d. 5/8/1902 in Kassa)
Fani Magaziner Meisels appears in a Kassa, Hungary death record. She was 78 years old, born in Humenne and the widow of Simon Meisels. This is undoubtedly the same woman who appeared in the 1869 census, transcribed as "Sain(?) Magaziner," born in Humenne in 1824 and the wife of Simon Meisls. The census showed that the couple had five children: David (b. 1844), Vilmos (b. 1847), Leo (b. 1852), Johana (b. 1855) and Lajos (b. 1862). A Leo Meisels is listed in Henry and Cecelia's wedding registry as a witness to the marriage, which suggests some connection between these two families, as does the recurring family name "Lajos." A Schaji Meisels, possibly Simon, is the witness at the birth of Ansel Weinberger, son of Rezi Magaziner, another connection. A Leo Meisels, certainly Fani's son, married Hermina Altmann in Kassa 12/5/1880. Another Meisel (first name illegible) is listed as a witness to the wedding of Adolf Magaziner and Johanna Neufeld.
Magaziner, Hani (b. abt. 1839, m. 8/17/1858)
Hani Magaziner, age 19, married Josef Kalman on 8/17/1858, according to the Humenne marriage registry. Her father's name is recorded as Schändl Ziner (though the bride's surname is listed as Magazi- ner). Hani could be a cousin of Henry, but I have no records connecting her to the family and no other records of any Schändl Magaziner (unless that is an alternate name for Samuel, who fathered children born before and after Hani).
Magaziner, Hani (bore a child around 1860)
In a 5/13/1884 Hungarian marriage record on JewishGen.org, "Hani Maganzoh" is listed as the mother of bride Regina Goldstein. This is likely a misreading of "Magaziner." The bride-daughter, Regina, was 24 years old, which fits well with the marriage date of 8/17/1858 for Hani Magaziner and Josef Kalman (above), but the father of the bride in this record is Mor Goldstein. These two Hanis could be relatives named for the same common relative, or they could be the same person, whose husband died shortly after the marriage leaving Hani to remarry quickly to Mor Goldstein. Regina Goldstein married Emannuel Zonenschein (or Sonnenschein), and they had four children born in Miskolc: Elza (b. 27 Dec 1886), Helena (b. 22 May 1891), Dezso (b. 16 Jul 1892, changed surname to Spanyi in 1916), and Erno (b. 18 Aug 1893, d. 31 Dec 1893). Elza is probably the Polacsek Lajosné Sonnenschein Elza (Elza Sonnenschein, wife of Lajos Polacsek, 1886-1968) who is buried at the Kozma Utcai Izraelita Temeto in Budapest.
Magaziner, Joh. (b. Abt. 1881)
A 6-year-old Joh. Magaziner appears in the immigrant ship manifest in the middle of the Magaziner family that is the subject of this site: below Heinr. (Henry) and Hanni (Anna) and above Wilh. (William), Netty (Nellie) and Zieli (Cecelia). He is a bit too young to be Louis, and much too young to be Anthony or Hugo, so this does not appear to be one of Henry and Cecelia's children. This may be a relative who was traveling with them, or it may be an unrelated child who was mistakenly listed as a Magaziner. I have found no evidence of a Joh. Magaziner in America.
Magaziner, Dr. Jona (fathered a child born 7/18/1860)
Dtr. Jona Magaziner was the father of a child, Chana, born on 7/18/1860, according to the Humenne birth registry. The child's mother was named Zilli. Jona could be a brother or cousin of Henry, but there is no evidence confirming that. I have found no other records of this person. He could possibly be the same person as Dr. Jozsef Magaziner, but I have no evidence of that other than the rarity of the name and the title. Jozsef married a woman named Antonia in Budapest 8½ months before Chana was born, so the connection seems unlikely.
Magaziner, Lob (fathered a child in 1865 and possibly 1844)
Lob Magaziner is identified as the father of Albert Magaziner on Albert's 1932 death certificate. Lob may also be the father of Chaje Magaziner, who was born in Humenne in 1844, because Chaje's birth record identifies her father as "Magaziner L" (or possibly "Magaziner S") and I know of no other "L"s who could be her father (Lowi's wife was too old and the rest were too young; Samuel had too many children too close to her date of birth). According to Albert's death record, Albert's mother was Sara Weinberger. According to Albert's descendants, Albert was born in Nagybecskerek in 1865, and was a window blind manufacturer like his brother, Lajos (probably Samuel's son Lajos, who was a blind manufacturer, but did not have the same parents as Albert). Albert married Róza Leipniker (1872-1962) and they had two sons: Laszlo who died in 1945, and Zoltan, who survived Bergen Belsen and Theresienstadt. Zoltan died in 1970. Zoltan has living descendants, who have provided me with information about this family.
Magaziner, Lujza (bore a child in 1885)
A Hungarian birth record shows a Lujza Magaziner as the mother of Ilona Rivka Fischer, born in Szeged. The father is Lipot Fischer. The unfamiliarity of the names and the remoteness of this city from Humenne makes me suspect that this family may be unrelated. I have found nothing to connect them to Humenne.
Magaziner, Regina (bore a child in 1906)
Regina Magaziner is the mother of Hungarian sculptor Klára Weiss Herczeg. Klára was born in Budapest on 10/13/1906, the daughter of Regina Magaziner and Adolf Weiss. In 1936, Klára married Hungarian businessman László Herczeg. Klára died on 8/6/1997. This Regina is probably not the same person as Adolf's daughter Regina Magaziner, because she was single and living in Homonna Nagy in March 1907, five months after Klára was born in Budapest. However, they could be related to each other and named for a common ancestor. I have no evidence of any connection to Homonna or to the family, but there were other relatives and other Homonna Magaziners living in Budapest by 1906.
Magaziner, Rosa (b. Abt. 1871; d. Oct. 1888?)
Rosa Magaziner appears in an immigrant ship's manifest from Hamburg, Germany to New York City in October, 1888. The manifest indicates that she is a 17-year-old single woman from Ujhely in Hungary. Ujhely is an alternate name for Sátoraljaújhely. It is possible that this is another alternate name for Emil's daughter, Ruchel/Roza/Racher, who was born in 1871 and lived in Ujhely. It is likely that Ruchel/Roza/Racher was not yet married to Markusz Nagy in 1888. However, the ship's manifest appears to indicate that Rosa died in transit, which of course would mean it is not the same woman. I am not certain that I am interpreting the death-in-transit marking correctly.
Magaziner, Sandor (b. 1892, d. 1893)
Kozma Utcai Izraelita Temeto in Budapest records the burial of a Sandor Magaziner. There are other Magaziners buried in that cemetery, but there are no Magaziners buried anywhere near the location of his grave. It is not clear whose child he might be, or whether he is related.
Magaziner, Serena (b. Abt. 1873)
A Serena Magaziner appears in an immigrant ship's manifest from Hamburg, Germany to New York City in September, 1889. The manifest indicates that she is a 16-year-old single woman from Ujhely in Hungary. Ujhely is an alternate name for Sátoraljaújhely, the town where Emil Magaziner was an inkeeper and where Ester Magaziner's daughter Johana Klein married Moritz Schon. It is possible that she is Sali, the daughter of Emil Magaziner and Etelka Balkany who was born in 1873. It is also possible that she is the Serena Magaziner who married Isaac Schwartz in Philadelphia. Isaac's wife is definitely a child of Emil and Etelka, but she usually claims to be much younger than this Serena or Sali. The ship's manifest appears to indicate that she died in transit, but I may be misinterpreting this.
