Mary,

The Greek Catholic records of L'utina encompass the village of Hanigovce.

Your ancestor should be found in L'utina records with the residence noted as Hanigovce or Honig.

My grandfather was from Honig/Henig/Hanigovce, but when I look on Family Search, the location in their transcription typically says "l'utina." Looking at the original pages, this seems to encompas Honig as well as 3-4 neighboring villages. Is "l'utina" a reference to the parish? How do I find the names of nearby parishes to search those records?
