Hello
What are the names of the Serbian Orthodox churches in the towns of Taras and Melenci. My grandparents, Despot and Jelena Marinkov were married in the church in Taras and would like to get some information about the church. Also, how would i go about getting their marriage records and other pertinent family information such as names of siblings, parents and other relatives?
Thanks
Marlene Czarnecki
Hi Sergej
I found a web site that has information on all of the towns that my grandparents were from in Serbia. However in order to find out information on the churches, I will need it tranlated to English...Do you think you can translate the writing below for me.
Thank you
Marlene
Taras
VERSKE INSTITUCIJE, CRKVE U selu postoji jedna pravoslavna crkva sagradjena 1851.godine sa izuzetno bogatim ikonostasom. Crkvena slava je DJurdjevdan.
Melenci
VERSKE INSTITUCIJE, CRKVE Mesna crkva sagradjena je 1790.
Elemir
VERSKE INSTITUCIJE, CRKVE Elemir ima dva hrišćanska hrama - pravoslavni i katolički.
Pravoslavna crkva izgradjena je 1806. godine u centru sela i posvećena je Preobraženju gospodnjem. Crkvene matične knjige su sačuvane, a najstarija datira iz 1746. godine. Crkva je restauirana iznutra 1968. a spolja 1998 godine pa je sada jedna od najlepših crkava Banata.
Današnja katolička crkva u Elemiru podignuta je 1847. godine, posvećena je Sv. Agoštonu, a izgradnju crkve najvećim delom je finansirao veleposednik Erne Kiš, koji je u njoj i sahranjen. Crkva je delimično rekonstruisana pre nekoliko godina.

Thank you Sergej
one question...How would i find out the name of the churches...i know my grandparents were married in the one in Taras and i believe my grandmother was born in Elemir.
Thanks again
Marlene
You could check it with the phonebook but either way these are small towns and you couldn't miss them when you would go there
If you write them just write to the Serbian Orthodox Church or Serbian Catholic Church with the name of the saint attached and it will get there.
Regards,
Sergej
