HUNGARY CIVIL REGISTRATIONS 1895-1978 (Indexes)
ROMANIA VITAL RECORDS FOR SELECTED REGIONS 1595-1914 (In German)
These are two of the newer offerings by the popular ANCESTRY genealogy databases that may be helpful to some of you. I tried both of them and didn't find anything for my own particular family history project/genealogy. The trouble is that there is little to nothing for certain Hungarian Counties.
As a note, there are many JEWISH GEN contributions to the ANCESTRY DATABASES. Sadly, I was witness years ago to some of the data collection going on by volunteers working for JEWISHGEN at one of the LDS Family History Centers. They were scrolling microfilm and making judgments on who was or wasn't Jewish. One of these volunteers admitted to me that he had not realized that Christians/Catholics also used some Biblical given names (first names) and had submitted these people as Jewish. It goes to show you, that you MUST go to the original source material and decide for yourself.
Additionally, there may be USEFUL NOTATIONS that are not recorded by indexing projects, just ignored, or because there is no one to translate the notes properly.
You may want to also look for FUNERAL NOTICES, though these appeared where there were actual newspapers and may have only been for those who paid for the notice.
