 St. Mary as Queen of the World with her son Jesus

 This I am almost certain this is St. Joseph with Jesus.

 St. Mary

 I am not sure of this one. However being a Hungarian based Churched I am thinking it would be St. King Steven. Bur this is a guess

 this one is clearly a Shepard. However I am not sure.

 The Archangel Michael slaying Satin represented as a dragon


 No idea of this one

I have no idea or a guess for this statue


There are several lovely statues in this church. A few dozen of them at least. most of them are around 1.3 meters high or there about. When I was a kid I was scared of the Archangel Gabriel  slaying the Dragon. I am not sure but I am thinking they are made from Plaster of Paris which was rather normal back around 1900. Every one of them is in lovely condition 120 years on. If any one knows who the saints are please let me know.
