In my great-grandfather Bernhard Krauss's marriage records >from
Hunsdorf, he said he was auf Bonhard. There is a possibility he may
have come >from Bonyhad. Has anyone who researches Bonyhad found a
record of a person who spoke German using the name Bonhard for Bonyhad?

In a military record, he was said to come >from the Bansag. I think this
is a military or frontier region. Was Bonyhad considered to be a part
of such a region, especially in the early 1800's?

Any help will be much appreciated.
