Slovakia Church Books, 1592-1910 - Guide To The Roman Catholic Records, Part 2

I noticed the other day that FamilySearch had added a new database of use to those with Hungarian and Slovakian ancestors. They added the  Slovakia Church Books, 1592-1910   database on March 22nd. I've personally been making great use of these records. The father-in-law of a friend of mine came from this area, along with various noble cousins of mine. I know these records can seem daunting to the researcher unversed in Hungarian or Slovakian research. The fact that the borders and names of towns changed constantly can give you a headache, too. I decided that creating a guide to these records would not only help me, but would help other researchers as well. I'm going to create a separate guide (blog post) for each religion. Quick links to the other guides:  Evangelical ,  Jewish ,  Reformed , Roman Catholic Part 1 ,  Roman Catholic Part 2 . This guide is focused on the Roman Catholic church records within this database. T he Roman Catholic church records guide begins here:
