Sixth Generation


58. Péter FEKETE (NIGRINI)269 was born about 1717 in Csikvánd, Györ m, HUN. He died on 22 July 1763 at the age of 46 in Vadosfa, Sopron m, HUN.270 He died of tuberculosis ("szározbetegség"). Following the short standard death notice in Hungarian in the church register, the following note was written in Latin by the Pastor: "With utmost contempt for divine worship, for nine years he did not partake of the sacred supper of the Lord, but used dreadful words while indulging in drunkenness and anger. One year before his death, as if struck by lightning, he became like a lamb repudiating evil(?), and the mysteries of the Lord's Supper were useful as before."

In his first daughter's birth record, he is identified as a "Borbély Mester ember" -- the owner of a barbering business and the son of "Nigrini" -- the evangelical pastor in Csikvánd. He was also known as Peter Nigrini.

We believe that he was heavily involved in the Vadosfa Riot of 1751, and was among those participants imprisoned. Though we don't have the details, most of the prisoners were incarcerated for over a year ... well into 1753. Apparently, while in prison, his wife had an affair with one Sándor Horváth, a barber employed by her husband. In his 1757 death record, the Pastor wrote of Horváth (among other things) in Latin: "He lived an impure life with Rozina Németh, wife of Péter Fekete alias Nigrini." This may be the cause of Fekete's radical behavior for several years following his release. Rozina NÉMET and Péter FEKETE (NIGRINI) were married about 1740.

59. Rozina NÉMET was born on 26 June 1724 in Vadosfa, Sopron m, HUN.271 She died on 15 May 1800 at the age of 75 in Vadosfa, Sopron m, HUN.272 The death register gives her age as 77, and she was identified as the widow of Péter Fekete.
