My relative born in 1878 Hungary says his ethnicity is Serbian.
I am being told that if they are true Serbs...at that time Zdencar could not be there surname.
Any insight or help would be grateful.
Where in Hungary and do you have any original documents for me to review?
You can look up our research article on Serbian Trade Association database, which is the best way to "prove" both the original period spelling of a surname as well as whether any family in any particular location was ethnic Serbian or not:
