Hi Listers: Well I've only had a little luck on my Rodinis/Fucich Family so I thought I'd branch out and see what comes up. Is anyone researching the BRYUSTOCHE surname. I found my Uncle Steve Rodinis' baptismal certificate. He was baptized on March 7, 1929 at St. Stephen's Church, Brooklyn, NY. His sponsors are listed as Michael BILLOS and Helen BRYUSTOCHE. I'm hoping these people are somehow related. Any help would be appreciated. Also, is there a aite for Croatian telephone directories. I know there are 9 Rodinis' listed in Cres, thought I might try a mass mailing. Thanks, Pat
