Source-derived summary

Nemesnádudvar (German: Nadwar, Croatian: Dudvar or Nadvar) is a village in Bács-Kiskun county, Hungary.

The parish of Nádudvar was founded in 1739, separating from parish Hajós. Until 1724, there were Croats living in this parish, when archbishop Csáky settles Germans in this village, so that in 1834, in the parish of Nádudvar, only German language was used.

Village was changing its name several times, Nád-Udvar, Nádudvar, and finally, since 1901, has the name Nemesnádudvar.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Nemesnádudvar” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Nemesnádudvar, village and Hungary provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 31, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q934974. VIAF identifies the subject as 159590832. Authority coordinates are 46.333, 19.050. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1739, 1724, 1834 and 1901.

Critical limits

Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
