Hi there,
I just started researching my family roots. My great-grandmother was born in Daruvar. I do have her birth record (at least that's what I believe it is). It states her birth date as 10/12/1888. The title of the paper states: Federativna Narodna Republika Jugoslavija
Narodna Republika Hrvatska
Kotar: Daruvar
ofenski Dezunovae ??
Izvod iz maticne knjige rodenih
It states her name as Francika Bures (she went by Frances Bures)
It lists her Oca (father I assume) as Vemel Bures and Majke (mother I assume) as: Bures rod Novak Ana or Hna?? I'm guessing this is Ana or Hna Novak with Bures being the married name. I don't understand why it is dated in 1953 though.
She came to America in 1906. She had a sister named Marie. Her mother remarried to a Sobota and had a daughter named Katherine A. This is all I know and I'm deadlocked. I have come up empty handed on trying to find any information on her parents. Any information or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration...Michele
You can try with the LDS Family Centers, they have microfilms from Croatia
