Family Lines At the begginning of 2006 there were at least ten Hajostek/Hayostek groups around the world. Not all of the groups have been connected back to their origins in theTatra Mountains. To date, the Vienna Group goes back to Casta, Slovakia. To date, the group that lives (or lived) in Buffalo, New York, USA has not been traced back to a specific place in Slovakia (original immigrant ancester, Bela Hajosztek). Note; the name Bela is not used for a son in early Slovak church records. It is possible that one of the Hai(j)ostek families migrated south into what is, today Hungary. Bela may be a Hungarian name. Note; in the early 1700's, it appears that the Slovak alphabet did not have the letter J.
