Thank you Karen, Cathy and David,

Thanks to the link, I located the entry on the Wilhelm and Kalbrunner source. I cannot find the location of the Banater Akten on Family Search. What do I specifically type in to locate it?

Also, are there any other sources that lead to the villages in the Banat where they were assigned? I do not know the village. 

I am trying to locate where my Great grandfather George Miskho Senior was born in 1885. His earliest document is his ship record (Jan 1906).

Here is where I am at:

My great grandfather Gyorgy Miksa (George Miskho) (born 29 Dec 1885) (parents John Miskho and Magdalena) ship record of him coming to America on 3 Jan 1906. Last known residence Jahrmarkt, Temes, Hungary. I have been researching in Jahrmarkt without luck of finding him there. I have put a lot of focus on  a 10 mile radius around Jahrmarkt to as many villages as possible to see if there are Miskho's in the area. No luck so far. I have looked at all the other immigrants on his ship record that listed Jahrmarkt as their last residence. They are all born in Jahrmarkt. My great grandfather is not. His final destination in America was North Tonawanda, New York.

There are just two nearby villages to Jahrmarkt that I have not ruled out that have a few immigrants to North Tonawanda. If someone could help me rule those two villages out, that would be helpful. They are: (looking for any Miskho, Mischo, Miksa variation)

1. Blumenthal and 
2. Koenigshof, both in Temes, Hungary.

I have pinpointed all the other immigrants that went to North Tonawanda and Tonawanda, New York within the years spanning 1905-1907 from David Dreyers Ship records. There are quite a few villages in the banat that have had immigrants going to the same final destination. Quite a few of them, I have had look-ups done for so I have eliminated those as possibilities.

Here are the ones that I have not eliminated. If anyone has family books in these villages, please let me know if you can do a look-up:

Gross Betschkerek, Nakodorf, Etschka, St. Georgen, Lenauheim, St. Anna (Neu), St. Anna, Galscha, Neu Paulisch, St. Nikolaus (KI), Glogowatz, Schondorf, and Neu Arad.

Thank you for all your help. I am trying to connect going backwards from the Vienna records or from George Miskho ship record.

Any tips in researching would be appreciated and thank you for helping me with look-ups.
