3 unusual facts about Csernovics Ujfalu


Csernovics Ujfalu

Situated between Curtici and Sântana, it was depopulated in 1852, when the new landlord (who presumably won the property playing a cards game) dissolved the property, ousting the farmers working there on tobacco fields.

Csernovics Ujfalu was puszta (in Hungarian) or praedium (depopulated area, in Latin) in the NW part of Arad County, about 10-15 km from the Romanian-Hungarian border, via Curtici.

The latter was formed in 1853 by 92 families of Hungarian Roman Catholic farmers ousted by their landlord from Bánkuta puszta, in the western part of Arad county (Elek jaras/district, now in Hungary).
