After a trip to Europe, I started to become more interested in my surname. I was wondering how I can find more information about my heritage and serbian ancestors. My last name is Devich and I am pretty sure that after the move from Serbia to Johnstown, Pennsylvania, the name stayed the same. If anyone can offer help on how to find more out about my ancestors, that would be great. Thanks.

Hello Stephanie,
Devic as we write it in Serbian is a comon name. Do you have a little bit more info so I can help you? I need a place of origin from where they moved or something like that.
Thnx

hi stephanie, i found the records from ellis island to be very helpful. you can get there online. also i think that you can search cemetaries and burial records for johnstown. i think that you have to figure out which county it is tho. mizbee
