I think you are seeing names and occupations. Agricolae would be farmers (Latin). In parish records the occupation of the parties is generally listed in the same box just after their names. You may see agricolae, or vincolae (grapes/wine) in the Latin. In Croatian records you may see seljani (or selj.) which is peasants, and sup. (short for suprug/supruga) which is spouses. These words ususally appear just below or just followigthe names, for parents, godparents, witnesses, survivors (in death registers,), etc. ______________________________> X-Message: #4 > Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2002 17:46:29 -0700 > From: Kathy Meznarich Jacobs <cthroop@digisys.net> > To: CROATIA-L@rootsweb.com > Message-ID: <3CCC97E5.67DCF725@digisys.net> > Subject: [CROATIA-L] Basar and Moskun > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > > I have just received the information that my gg grandmother's, Doro > Basar, born 9/22/1863 in Kraljevina, parents names were Mathias Basar > and Helena Moskun Agricolae (Agneae).
