Barbara (Babeth) Diamand

Listed as witnesses on her marriage record (20 July 1797) are Barbara's father, "Simon Zerkovitz" [Simon Kohn-Zerkowitz, c1754-1817], and her uncle, "Jonas Zerkovitz" [Markus Jonas Kohn-Zerkowitz, 1765-1821]. Barbara lived in Trebic with her husband, Markus Diamand, until his death in 1829. Subsequently, she spent her later years in Hungary.

Barbara died in "Pechi Neudorf", Hungary, on 24 January 1854, "age 70" [she was actually about 75 at the time]. Her place of death is possibly now Pečovská Nová Ves, Slovakia, located in northeast Slovakia and almost directly north of Presov. Her death, however, was recorded in Trebic, and she was buried there, alongside her husband. Her death record refers to her as "Babeth Diamand, wittwe Markus", and a note (inserted later) states that she was a resident of Hungary ["Comitat Ungarn"].
