A HUNDRED YEARS BEFORE THE URBARIUM 1767 - 1679 VINEYARDS and PRODUCTION of WINE in TOKAJ

TRANSLATE GOOGLE : 1679 YEAR TOKAJ WINE and VINEYARDS

This find, on the Hungaricana - NATIONAL ARCHIVES OF HUNGARY site, again came up using the town name Gonc, and it shows the early link with the town and the wine making and growing of grapes in the Tokaj region.  Here you will learn that some of the vineyards had been confiscated or lost and the names of the people who owned them or were taking care of them.

EXCERPT:  The free grapes confiscated by Menecert Keczer were cultivated by the "ex fructu" by Miklos Szini's widow (the whole funeral is his, in the case of neglected grapes, he does not come to the vine....

(A sense of humor is displayed!)

There is a list of villages this 19 page archival document covers.  If you have wine making in Tokaj in your family history this is a wonderful history.
