30 Apr 2008 Map of the 1795 flood in Apatin - (inundated by flood waters is shown in red) "In old Apatin" a branch of the Danube River separated the town into two parts.
The flood of 1795 destroyed most of the town with only one third of the old town remaining. "The church, the market, everything was destroyed by the flood. The old church is now in the middle of the river." (Boris Masic)

June 21, 2007 Ron Gretz volunteers as a Co-Coordinator for Apatin.  Ron has been with the DVHH project since the beginning serving as a Lookup Volunteer, not only for Apatin, but for BacsSentiwan, Batschalmasch, Kernei and Nemes Naduvar.  He has helped many people find their family histories, including me, and I look forward to working with Ron for our village and for our fellow Apatiner descendants. And I anticipate new additions and growth on our Apatin site.
