On my post about our recent trip to Rukavac, Croatia, I mentioned that in order to distinguish between individuals bearing the same name, each house in the village had a name. We then discovered a couple of ways the house name is used. Kalinari, the name of my Puz family house, was written at the top of our family page in the Status Animarum (book of souls) at the parish church, (while the priest was on the telephone, my daughter photographed the huge ledger book, which was opened to our page, so I just noticed this when looking at the pictures); We were given books on the area written by our new friends/relatives- in-law, author, Franjo Sepic-Bertin (Franjo Sepic from the house Bertin); and author, Franjo Mohorovicic-Maricin, (Franjo Mohorovicic from the house Maricin). Also saw the use of hyphenated names in cemeteries, so assume the same rule applies. The maiden name of a woman, if given, was under her married name, with the prefix "Rod.", born. This was all new to me, so thought I'd pass it on. Roanne
