Plague Monument and Main Street - Kosice, Slovakia

© December 09 2006, Uncornered Market

Tucked away in eastern Slovakia between the Tatra mountains and the Ukrainian border is Slovakia’s second largest city.

Genealogical research along a Slovak branch of our family tree brings us here. Our journey is replete with warm hospitality, including offers of grapes, plum brandy, meals and translation services from people we’d never met. Eventually, our search pulls us eastward into farming areas near the Ukrainian border and concluded in a village of 1000 people, whose mayor met with us personally and presented us with apples as a reward for our perseverance.
