I'll obviously be teaching Kevin more Hebrew (if he cares to learn; though as a Levi descended from a Lewshik--Levshik--on his mom's side, he should); but first, toda el (thanks to) Kevin for sending the records; and this is what I replied to him:
"It looks like Andrej Novak and Jan Molnar were witnesses--this would mean that the Rusnaks, Molnars, Novaks, et. al. stuck together when kicked out of Kosice. However, this means that only the Rusnaks and Molnars converted at the time. It may mean that the Novaks did, too, or simply that they begrudgingly went to an Anusi wedding in support of their meshumad brother--this could've gotten them into huge trouble, though. Nonetheless, even some Orthodox and Proto-Conservative, -Reform, and -Reconstructionist (since only Orthodox Judaism was the P'rushi Judaism at the time, and the Rusnaks were not Karaites; and Reform Judaism was just getting founded. Anyway, even some Orthodox and Proto-Reform P'rushim) allowed Non-Messianic Jews to attend and participate in Messianic and Anusi weddings provided that they did nothing Christian, etc. (e.g., See modern CCAR Resolution 168).

"This may also shed further light on Foczko-Hanzok Anusi practices--we already saw the sticking together and naming of the children as anything other than (with few exceptions) "Maria". Even our cousin Mariama Valkova was not given the variant "Maria", for example.
"This only serves to confirm my theory that Anusim stuck together (and we did! There's no shame in being Jewish--provided that we know Mashiach, anyway; otherwise, we do become a byword as TaNaKH says)."
By the way, Reform Judaism had its beginnings in the 1820s to 1840s in Berlin, Germany; and a huge date for the Reform Movement (however kofer Reform Judaism is) is 1847 (and we've discussed how kofer Reform Judaism is--since, for example, they do not believe even in a Mashiach to come or in the inerrancy of TaNaKH with or without Hadashah).
By the way, I will find out Kevin's Hebrew name, but it includes HaLevi.
The records, meanwhile:
By the way, laughter did happen when I confirmed that "Kvet-Kovits" is Jewish; and tears almost swelled up along with pride for Yisra'el, Ha'Eretz l'Am-Avoti (Israel, the land of my dad's people).
