Hello
A good friends mother recently died, and in cleaning her papers she found her baptism record. Her mother had always been secretive of her past.We do not speak or read serbian but from what we can tell it states:
Dorothea Catherine born March 15 1928, baptised 23 May 1928 Belgrade,Ruzica.
Parents;John Gregory, Prince of Dilja &Caucas, Obrenovich-Knezeveich Russ.Orth.& Princess Maria Natasha Obrenovich.
Count nicolas Shibanich as witness or godparent??
Archbishop Peter Trbojevich presiding??
As this all comes as a surprise to her she would appreciate any info on her grandparents family
Thank you

Hi Sergej
Yes I have a scan of this document and an other found of the orthodox church belately recognizing her marriage. I have saved them to my files here on the site but I am not sure how to send them to you.
A quick search on the web for the Obrenovic family seems to indicate the family has died out, so that is why we are wondering.
Thanks again

I am not certain of the friend, and although I know the intentions are noble, I have not granted permission to have my mother's personal papers or identity become public knowledge on the internet.
Sergei,if there is a way to have private communication with you and your organization, and help finding relatives in Belgrade, they need to be informed of my mother's passing.
Thank you for your understanding and discretion.

Hi,
If you want to look for relatives I would advice membership in the SGS, mainly because it will take some time and work. YOu can then also attach the picture in the members forum which is for members only and not accessible to the public.

I checked it, Paypal needs to authenticate and then you can automatically post in the members forum. I send you a PM with our email so you can send a scan.

Sergej
