Has anyone heard of that name. I am only going by some
writing that my father left after he died. He worked
for my father in Minn. I do remember that he said he
was from Croatia. Spelling may be off. |

on April 26, 2002 - Ancestors from Croatia
Name 1: |
Nicola Rozich |
Name 2: |
Anna Marianovich |
Location: |
Hertz nagovna (? sp) |
I am trying to find out if my grandfather Nicola Rozich
possibly returned to Croatia around 1923-4 and married
and had another family.
Apparently, he came from a town called hertz nagovna
(? sp) and married my grandmother Anna Marianovich around
1912-13 and came to the US. They lived in Chicago, then
Passadena, then West Frankfort. ( southern Illinois).
The family lost touch around 1923 when he divorced or
maybe just left his family of 3 boys and 1 girl and
my grandmother in W. Frankfort.
I don't even know where to begin my search, but want
to learn anything I can about my father's side of the
family. We have a photo of him with my grandmother and
2 of the boys. He was very handsome.
Any info would be of help and thanks for the time to
respond to my letter.
Sincerely, Nancy Rozich Zeller

It is necessary for you to find out the exact location
from where your grandparents originally came from before
you can get any further - "hertz nagovna" doesn't ring
a bell at all - herceg novi, hercegovina (??) .....
whereabouts do you think it should be, geographically?
The US immigration dept should have their place of birth
(??)
Try browsing through the Ellis
Island Records
Once you know the place, you could get in touch with
the local church (we can help you with the addresses),
where most records were kept in those days
For your research you might find
some valuable pointers amongst the genealogical
literature for beginners - take a look at our
Genealogical Resources |
|
Meanwhile - how about posting that photograph here -
we could do with some "handsome" pics, just
to break the type-only monotony :-)
Please consider becoming a Member
of this Croatian Genealogy site, and send us the photographs
(in jpg format per email), together with any more details
you might have available |

family - Click

one of the many villas in Rijeka (Pecine) belonging
