I am looking for Paul Kalozdy 1819 - 1858, his wife Ann nee Gedge 1824 -1897 and daughter Isabella born 1856. In Westminster or London area.
I cannot find them on any census. Paul was a musician. Marriage was registered Dec quarter 1853 at St John the Evangelist Church,Westminster.
Any info most welcome!

Catherine Report 19 May 2015 17:11

I saw that one too Chris. Are you also thinking that Saol may be Paul in Hungarian?

As country of origin is noted as Magyar I took a look on google:-

Magyar may refer to:
A nation and an ethnic group native to and primarily associated with Hungarian people

He seems to be traveling with a group of 10 others all from Magyar.
The first person on the list is definately a Musician from Austria.

Occupation looks to be Müvész. (Googled this and looks to mean) = Artist or Virtuoso.

Take a look on findmypast.

http://search.findmypast.co.uk/bna/viewarticle?id=bl%2f0000174%2f18520310%2f031

There are lots of newspaper articles about the group, the above is just one of them.

The Hungarian Musical Company
The group were lead by Herr Kalozdy who played first violin (could very well be his father Francis) and Paul Kalozdy played second violin.

Gins,
I have had a good look at the 1861 census details you sent me and followed a few things up, it appears that Ann Gedge/Kolozdy was running a boarding or lodging house, and that the Mary Price and her son Henry were just lodging there, and were chiropodists by trade.
This Kolozdy family were a very involved lot and comp
licated to sort out, especially with a few half truths along the way!
Thanks to all for helping to sort some of it out!
