A History of Central Eastern Europe
Four towns in Zemplen Megye in Hungary are studied: Hosszu-Laz, Felso-Regmec, Nagy-Trna (now in Slovakia), and Satoralijaujhely; and two villages in the Spis region of Slovakia: Stara Ves and Majere with Lysa nad Dunajcom provide the backdrop for an overview of this part of Hungary and Upper Hungary from the 18th to 20th centuries.

EVANJELICKÁ CIRKEV
. A second church edifice was present by the
end of the 19 th century. The EVANJELICKÁ CIRKEV is a
Lutheran Church, but may have a Hungarian Reformed
Church prior to 1920. The church is the structure on
the right.
STARÁ VES GÖRÖG KATHOLIKUS
Records suggest that a Greek Catholic
mission of the NAGY-LIPNIK GÖRÖG KATHOLIKUS
started meeting in town around 1890. The Slovak
Greek Byzantine Church was intertwined with the
Ruthenian Catholic Church for most of its existence.
During 1950 – 68 the church was forced into union
with the Russian Orthodox Church.
There is also a small chapel in one of the two
cemeteries in SPIŠSKÁ STARÁ VES. A full
inventory with photos of one of the two
cemeteries is available online. From that site the
photo below was copied. There are 7 KUTARÑA
internments from 1924 to 1983; the one pictured
is FRANTISEK KUTARÑA, died 1981. This
cemetery does not appear to be the same as the
one pictured at left, but the webpage was not
clear in identifying which of the 2 cemeteries it
was.
