Oh. Now I see what I did. The 1910 map of Zala
(http://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910/zala.jpg)
shows Tapolcza. The map of 1910 Veszprem
http://lazarus.elte.hu/hun/maps/1910/veszprem.jpg)
in the Papa district shows a Tapolczafo.
I thought the place in Zala was where Gramma's family was from, because I
didn't see the place in Veszprem.

Incidentally, now I see where Homokbodoge is, too. Guess that's why I
couldn't find it in Zala?

Humbled,
Cathy in Seattle
