Hi My Aunts first name was Kata but went by Catherine when she was in school during the early 1920's she grew up on the North Side, Woods Run in Pittsburgh, PA As long as I am writing might as well throw out the surnames I am still searching for as I am no futher along on this line than I was a Year ago. Any one working on this line BLAZEVIC and MISETIC Donna
Donna, i don't know if we corresponded last year or not as there have been at least 6 major catastrophies to my e-mail since then. I no longer look cross-eyed at the computer, lest it decide not to start up, or having started up, decide to delete the e-mail program. Again.l Enough of fear and loathing, about BLAZEVIC: my grandmother's mother was a BLAZEVIC from Sunger / Mrkopalj. Grandmother thought she had no close relatives from that branch of her family in the USA and also said she was somewhat estranged from her mother and had not kept up contacts in Croatia from those relatives. She did tell me that her mother, Maria BLAZEVIC, had three sisters and a brother. They were possibly all born c. 1860 thru 1880? BLAZEVIC seems to be a fairly common name. If your family is not from the Riejeka area ( Sunger and Mrkopalj are in the hills east of Riejeka ) , I suspect that you'd be from another branch of an extensive family. Do please let me know. Regards, Ashley researching BLAZEVIC, PETROVIC, TOMIC, GRUBISIC, PASKVAN, and quite a few other names from the Mrkopalj area; SCHAEFFER, SAFER, FIRSCH, FIERST, WIRTZ, BAKIC, FACULJAK and other collateral names from the Virovitica area, near the Hungarian border >Hi My Aunts first name was Kata but went by Catherine when she was in school >during the early 1920's she grew up on the North Side, Woods Run in >Pittsburgh, PA > As long as I am writing might as well throw out the surnames I am still >searching for as I am no futher along on this line than I was a Year ago.
