Hi,Your website is awesome! it’s helped me immensely in doing my daughter-in-law’s genealogy from Croatia.
In researching Church Records in Radoboj, Krapinia, Croatia, I’ve come across the surname of Kantolick. I don’t see it listed on your website. I did a google search on it, and nothing comes up. It appears on the microfilm many times. Her line is Georgius Kantolick, and I’ve extracted his entire family from the milcrofilm. It states he is from Velika Ves, which is near Radoboj.
The records is on FamilySearch.org.

can you please tell me if this is a Croatian last name?
Kukolja
Kezele from Kuzelj Parish Marriages. Please add the proper Croatian name. Thank you! Kesele in Slovenian/Gottschee.
I believe Krgacin should be added.
Looking for information on KRVARIĆ and KRIĆANSKI family.
They are my Father’s and Mother’s family from Dugo Selo (Hrebinac) and Zagreb.
I have living family there, but am not sure how or where to look for records or grand parents, great grand parents, and more.
I am looking for my GG grand mother’s home town somewhere in Yugoslavia. Julia(Kvitk)Gall b.1884 d.1953 in Canada. Don’t know where her husband was from. Her maiden name Kvitk does not come up on searches. This is what is spelled on her tombstone in Canada. Do you know a region in the former Yugoslavia that this surname comes from?
Can you insert surname Krakan? Thank you.
Would you please list Kasunic/Kahsoonich on your web site. There are many of them in and around Generalski Stol in Croatia. My Grand Father, Franjo Kasunic came from that town.
I am looking for information on My great grandfathers home town, Baldjevina. He left in 1910. I know it was Austro-Hungarian Empire. His ethnicity was Croatia. Anything on Krupa in Croatia would help.
Kerćell is my last name and I’m not sure which part
Of Croatia my family is from. I’m pretty sure outside of Zagreb, but I could be mistaken.
Please, Insert surname Križnjak. Thank you!
I’m trying to find a reasonable spelling for my maternal grandmother’s maiden name. My parents’ generation (they are all gone now) had pronounced it as “Konzurak”, and the death certificate index shows “Konsurak” but it also misspelled her married name. Another reference on FamilySearch indicates it was “Kenyareck” which is probably a phonetic spelling where the “ny” is really “n” with a ha-chek. Have you ever come across any name that was in any way similar? Thanks.
Could I kindly ask you to list Kuscevic – Kussevich on your web site. My Grand grand mother was Antisa Kuscevic
Thank you
Please tell me about Kvakan, My grandmothers name from Zagreb area
Please add KORUNIĆ / KORUNICH – We are from Smokvica, Korcula on the Dalmatian coast. From what we know, we came there 700-900 years ago from northern Croatia. Before that we apparently came from somewhere near the Ukraine, crossing the Caspian Sea.
Thanks
