In American records I have a place of origin listed as Csap / Csay.

The only place nI can find close to that is Csapi.

Is there a place I am missing? Or do you think that is the place,

Also I am looking for a place that I believe translates to "Little Village".

Without knowing the correct spelling it is something like: "Kiesch Vada".

Does anyone have any idea about these places? Any information is appreciated.

Thank you for taking your time to read this.

Hi!

Csap is a village in former Hungary (pre ww1 end "treaties", and for a short period circa ww2).

Now it is in Transcarpathia, which in theory part of Ukraine - actually a border village.

Before that Soviet Union.

But for a period also belonged Czechoslovakia (interwar period).

That another is probably: Kisvárda.

That is also close to the border with Ukraine but even now on the Hungarian side.

Translates to little castle.
