Feri & Eva Beretvás were at least friends of my Father and Grandmother Janos Riesz and Anna Riesz (Schwimmer) 1889 - 1960 born Budapest and I am trying to find out if and how they are related to my family. I have some pictures of them some of which predate WW2.
There was also a Jozsef Gabor who I think is a relative whom my Grandmother visited in the 1930's and from memory a Iren Gabor.

If they were just close friends, it is most unlikely for you to prove a tie using the public archives.
The best you can hope for is them appearing on documents as witnesses to a marriage or as god parents to a baptism.
If you feel they could be related in some way however, it is a worthwhile task to further extend both their family tree and yours to see if the two ancestries eventually coincide.

I found the link between Irén Gábor (Rosenfeld) and my Grandmother Anna Riesz (born Schwimmer) after I found a death notice for Gábor / Gabriel Langráf, who died on 11 Apr 1900, in a local Papa newspaper. Gabriel Langráf,proved to be the missing link as follows.
Jakob (Jakab) Spitzer b c1818 Komarom m Maria (Mari) Klein b c 1818 Isztimer (NW Fejer county) and had a number of children including Katharina Spitzer, who was my grandmother's grandmother, and Rozália Spitzer who married Gabriel Langráf. This later marriage produced Teréz / Terezia Langraf. Terezia Langraf married Sámuel Rosenfeld and Irén Gábor (Rosenfeld) was their daughter.
I found the death notice by searching the archives in the Hungarian National Library.
