Just a reminder for those working on Bohemian and Moravian town projects to search also in the JewishGen Hungary Database. You can search for a town name and often come up with families who moved from the Czech lands into Hungary. See https://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Hungary/

I am also interested in movement the other way. My family comes from Deutschen Rust in northwestern Bohemia. It has been said that groups of Jewish people migrated, or were invited to this place, at that time(late 1700s) from other parts of the Austrian Empire. I am wondering, if my 3rd great grandfather and his cousins moved here from https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust,_Burgenland
-thus the name of the village Deutschen Rust being an acknowledgment of the place from which these immigrants to the mountains of Bohemia (on the border of both Bavaria and Saxony -"Deutsch" in the Austrian context...) came.
-just a thought.

Rust may have been in Hungary at that time being also a border place.

I think that the new settlers rather came from Germany than from former Western Hungary, but who knows...

Traude's link however is great !
