An Introduction

Elizabeth Heim was born on November 9, 1876, in Mór, Féjér, Hungary, in what was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.  The United States government would later change this date to November 15th.  In reality it is difficult to say with precision what her real name was.  In essence it was Elizabeth.  To the Hungarians she was Erzsebet, to her family she was Lizi.
