We found an Internet Cafe!
... was. We also found Abigail, who helped us immensely in showing us where the cemetary was and finding Jozsef, who opened up the Church and led us in deciphering the Family Directory. We were able to find a listing of marriage between Pal Puhl and Julianna Rudics, who we discovered were married at ages 23 and 18, respectively.
While waiting at the bus stop to head back to Eger, Jozsef and his family stopped by, picked us up, ...
