Szeghalom, Bekes megye, is not too far from Battonya, where my Szucs family lived.However, I can't find any Julianna that would be a match to yours.
Have you tried doing research in the Mormon Church's microfilm collection?I just looked up Szeghalom and here are the entries:
HUNGARY, BEKES (megye), SZEGHALOM
REFORMED CHURCH
Records 1766-1895
microfilm #s 0632026, 0632027, 0632028, 0632029, 0632030, and 0632031.
ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
Records 1892-1895
microfilm # 0642713
MILITARY RECORDS, including births
Records 1884-1893
microfilm # 0629827
TAXATION
1772-1788, microfilm # 1662900, item 2
1788-1805, microfilm # 1662901
1806-1826, microfilm # 1662902
1826-1837, microfilm # 1662903, item 3
[There are also JEWISH records for Szeghalom, but I didn't copy down the microfilm numbers.]
I have used these Mormon Church microfilm collections for a great deal of my Szucs research.My Szucs family was living in Battonya in the mid 1800s, but came there from a small village called Csanadpalota.There are extensive Roman Catholic records on microfilm for both Battonya and Csanadpalota, and it was through those that I was able to determine that one of my ancestors, Michael Szucs (1754-1836), came to Csanadpalota from the larger city of Mako.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
