Name 1: August / Augusto Jasper Jurisich; Jurich
Name 2: Jurisich

Surname was changed from Jurisich between 1930-1940.
Granfathers' name is August (or Augusto) Jasper Jurisich who had a brother by the name of Nick or Nikolas who resided in Hoboken, New Jersey between 1928-1935. Jasper married Rose Cristel and they had one son John, residing in the small neighboring townships of Carbonado and Wilkeson, WA.
In the early 1900's Jasper was the game warden in Wilkeson (approx 1920's) also the founder and proprietor or the Pick and Shovel saloon located in Wilkeson, WA which is still in operation today.

Have just started geneology of Jurich/Jurisich family. I am the sole surviving member of my family, neither my only brother nor me have children, brother passed 12/15/00 in Miami, FL.
Any direction or assistance is appreciated.

Thank you, James Jurich

Loking for Slavko Yurkovich; Anton Yurkovich; Ljubica and Antonia Jakovac

Name 1: Slavko Yurkovich; Anton Yurkovich
Name 2: Ljubica and Antonia Jakovac
Location: Mala Dobra

I'm looking for Yurkovich (or Yurkovic) family in The States. My G-grandpa's brothers Anton (Anthony) and Slavko immigrated to USA from a small village Mala Dobra in Croatia. Slavko married Ljubica (Molly) Jakovac on September 4, 1913. They lived in Lyndora, PA. They had children: Frank, John, William, Slavko Jr., Anthony and Barbara. Slavko died 1938. in an accident on the work in Armco Steel company. Frank Yurkovich still lives in Lyndora, PA, but unfortunately he's not interested in his origins and I came to dead end. Also with Slavko and Anton immigrated their sister Barbara (maybe married Mischevich or Misceire). Ljubica (Molly) Jakovac also had a sister in the States named Antonia Jakovac... If someone recognize these people's names..please contact me!

Am researching my great grandfather's family. His name was Aloysius (Louis) Jusic. His parents were Matteo and Maria (nee Vlak) Jusic. He was born on 29 July 1849 and baptised in Sv Helena, Kastav. His baptism record states he lived in house N20 in the district of Jusic. His mother Maria was from Pula.
Would appreciate any information anyone has that can help me.

Thanks for this opportunity and have a great day

While researching Kastav for info about my husband's maternal family I found you. Their name was Jurcic and Matej was his grandfather. Matej and his wife both were from Kastav from the locality of Jurcici. I find it interesting the similarity of names and places.
Of course I'm a novice. E.J.
