“I recently discovered a third great grandmother in Hungary's Veszprém county whose surname was occasionally recorded as "Kolozsvári". But usually it appeared as some spelling variation of "Klausenberger". I was puzzled until someone pointed out to me that both names were referencing the same city, today's Cluj-Napoca in Romania's Transylvanian region. Its German name had been "Klausenburg" while Hungarians called it "Kolozsvár".”
Amazing what treasure you can find buried in old documents.
