Just saw this posted elsewhere and thought it might be of interest here. From the file description: "The History of the Greek Rite Catholics in Pannonia, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Podkarpatska Rus' 863-1949" by John Slivka. Details religious and political history of the Rusin (Rusyns) or Ruthenian Catholics (Eastern Rite Catholic in union with the Pope of Rome). The Ruthenian Eastern Rite Catholics established communion with the Pope and separated from Eastern Orthodoxy but retained many of the traditions of the Orthodox Church. Despite being in union with the Latin Church, there remained many tensions between the Latin Rite and Eastern Rite Catholics as well as tensions with Orthodoxy. It can be read or downloaded here. This, of course, is the same author who compiled Historical Mirror.

The late John Slivka was a married priest of the Ruthenian Greek Catholic Church in the U.S. I am quite sure that he had served in Brooklyn, NY at one point. Deacon Robert, As our resident historian, John Schweich, pointed out in another thread a while back, Father John, of blessed memory, was the last married man ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Takach, also of blessed memory, before the onset of the celibacy controversy in the 20 and 30s. Holy Ghost in Jessup was his home parish. Many years, Neil
