Correction: Patronims in Russian are always "ovitch", never "ov". For women it's always "ovna". The person's father name was most likely Itzik in Yiddish or Isaak in Russian documents. This was a name

Re: Hungary Ancestor location Help needed
#hungary
If you want to look further on this town, the Hungarian name variants are Nagygejocz, Nagy-geocz etc.
As far as I can tell, birth registers would have been kept in the district seat Ungvar
