I have a question:
How do U know, that Sava Tekelija is related to Thókoly de Kesmark family?

I am asking, because I found this fragment:
"Popovich family moved from the
part of Serbia under Turkish occupation to that under the sovereignty
of the Crown of St. Stephen in 17th
Century. They claimed to have had
been Lords of Tekija, and from that
place they took the substitute name
of Tekeliya, under which they
reached a certain fame. After another noble family of considerable
wealth and influence (Tököly de
Kezsmark) in Hungary died out,
they completely hungarised the
family name, perhaps expecting
that some of the former’s glory
would reflect upon them as well..."

I have no idea how to find out relations between two families. I want to find out.

Do U have any informations, please..?


(btw. sorry if my English is not grammaticaly correct- I do what I can, but this is my second language ;) )
