I sent off an email regarding any possible nobility connections for BAKIC, MATKOVIC, and VUKSIC - it will be interesting to see if they reply. Has anyone else tried this yet? I'm more than just curious since I have so much mystery remaining about what happened to Josip Matkovic- and dad use to insist we were descended from nobility. Dave

My family had "Matcovic".

Dave, Hmmm I find a web page that only allows you to "email" them with a promise to repsond.... and no button with info about who they are... nor any references. Having worked with the few genealogists in Croatia and being a member of The Croatian Genealogy Society based in Zagreb... no one has mentioned this so-called "office"... Better we should use the services of the reputable genealogists in Croatia.... but let us know what "their" response is... my guess is that for XXX$$$ we can supply you with info about "your" family coat of arms... But then this is just my gut feeling since this "office" has apparently seen fit to make themselves "invisible" on the internet!

????? Can you tell the List who would be "someone of importance"? :) Forgive me ...but this web page sounds "fishy". And if they are not then they should give more info from the outset.... My experience with this "heraldy" stuff is that most is made up.

I sent them an email about an hour ago congratulating them on their webpage and asking if Jerolim Kavanjin, the famous poet ,had a Heraldry Shield. I am waiting to hear from them.
