Update:
I found Steve and Elizabeth's marriage record on familysearch. They were married in Toledo, Ohio in 1921. Steve's parents were Michael Kovacs and Barbara Farkas; Elizabeth's parents were Joseph Farkas and Catherine Kovacs. The marriage record has their birthdates, which match the birthdates on ancestry's family tree. Using this info, I found Steve's baptism record on familysearch. He was born and baptized in Bodony, Heves County, Hungary.

I also found Elizabeth's passenger list; she came over with her mom and siblings; the ship list indicates that she was also from Bodony, Heves, Hungary.
