Dobrijevic is from that area. There are several families non-related with the same surname. The surname appears as early as the 15th century from what I know by heart but this doesnt mean anything unless you make a family tree-->pedigree.

Regards,
Sergej

Hi I have the surname Torbica, and my parents are from Prijedor (northern part of RS), well from the countryside around Prijedor. (if u need more info just tell me)
From what I know there are several families of Torbica there (around Prijedor) and my parents in fact my father and other relatives in our Torbica-family say that we are not at all relatives with these others.

What I would like to know is if there is any knowledge of these Torbica-families around Prijedor, that maybe we are relatives or have some connection or where come from?

and about what you told us Mirog, I was wondering if u maybe know why they changed their surname from Dobrijevic to Torbica , or some more info about the families of Torbica there, from where they originally came from???

Though my mother comes from Dobrijevic-family and she and some other realtives tell me that the Dobrijevics originally came from Zeta (Montenegro) and some years ago I have heard that there is a family-crest of Dobrijevic... but I havent checked that out if its true..

sorry for this long message... hope for an answer soon.
Thank you, Mirko:-)

From saga some old man had beard like bag (torba), and people started call them Torbice.

Torbice from Kozara area, that mean form Prijedor, came from Dalmatia, probably accros Drvar area where Torbice also lived.

In 1686. and 1692. year happened two big migration when more then 1000 families (500 per each migration) moved from Bjelaj (Bos. Petrovac) in Nord. Dalmatia (Knin Area). How big were those two migrations enough say that in 1712 Lika has 2110 families. I found that many of those families moved to Lika and after that in Bos. Krajina. Many of those families appear in all three area: Bos. Krajina, Nord Dalmatia and Lika. For example: Gacesa, Brekic, Dobrijevic, Torbica,…

Slava nam jeste Sv.Jovan.Pokojni stric se malo bavio istrazivanjem i jedanput mi rekao da poticemo od Mandica iz Hercegovine ili Crne Gore i da se predak zvao Toso Mandic(kao i kod vecine prezimena ).Nazalost stric je umro a moje sestre od strica nisu sacuvale njegove spise.

I found that in 1692. year 500 families (5000 persons) moved from Bjelaj (Bos. Petrovac) to Kninska Krajina (Plavno, Padjene, at Zrmanja, Mokro Polje).

Any data on Bajic family in that relocation from Bilaj to Mokro Polje in 1692? Possibly Tanasije Bajic.

Also I would appreciate any info on Bajic Family from Mokro Polje.

Hi Vlade,

Most of Macuras lived in village called Macure (Kistanje) nearby Knin. Some of them (my family) moved to Medjare (Bribirske Mostine, Benkovac) nearby Sibenik, where they still live. We all celebrate Saint Michael Arhangel.

According to my information Macure migrated from northen Greece (Vlaji) via Montenegro to Kistanje (Knin), small fraction setled in Bosnia. I understand there is a Macuras cemetery in Kolasin (Montenegro).

Hi Rajko,
do you know when did Macure emigrated from Montenegro and why. My grandfather was born in Kistanje and his whole family lived there. I know that they moved after the second world war to Sid and Sidski banovci.

Hi, is it possible to know from where like say families who has the saint Sv.Stevan, from where those famillies originally came from? I mean is it possible to track that down to where it begann? if so it would perhaps be easier to see whos from where, and so on...
