Novoselo is mentioned for the first time in the year 1554 with three (3) taxpaying households. In the year 1570 there are eleven (11) and in 1590 nine taxpaying households (in the Turkish taxlists).   After the wars with the Turkish armies in 1699, Novoselo was called Puszta. In 1701 through 1709 in the area "west of Lorenze" it was still Puszta.  There were however, seven (7) taxpaying households in the year 1715. The name of the place St. Lorenz is now called "Lorenzi"

     In 1731 Novoselo and the Puszta St. Lorenz (Lovrenz) belonged to the court chamberlain of Baron Johann Markus of Zuano or Zuana (Joana). He was also Kameral commissioner of Upper Hungary  and had the task to settle the uninhabited areas of Hungary.  Baron Johann Markus von Zuana allowed Swabian farmers to enlist, and settled them on his private property. He provided Novoselo with four (4) fairs every year and was  landlord from 1731 until 1746.

     Novoselo later came into the possession of the count Palffy. Palffy sold St. Lorenz and Novoselo to the royal advice Csepeni Johann Adamovics. Adamovics sold the property to the royal advice Cseh. This family was owner until the 19 century.

     An emergency due to the epidemic in the year 1738 (the pestilence) was probably what caused occasional  many inhabitants of Novoselo to move away. Also, a flood made the initial years more difficult for the settlers.     A quotation from the church book:

     "In the year 1751 there was an inundation/overflow of the Danube river which increased up to the large pear tree against a place which was destined for the church, where the chapel stood.  On the 3rd, 4th and the 5th of April the water level was on/at its highest stand.   The whole village was underwater.  April 4th was "Palm Sunday".   The settlement became stabilized by the further influx from colonists, into the reign of Joseph II.

     The " flowering village", known/called by the elder generation, required the structure work of generations of its people/Inhabitants.
