My grandfather was Latvian and I am trying to learn more about my ancestors. In my research I am learning that 83% of names ending in “-ics” are of Croation origin. If anyone has any information or commonality with this name, please contact me at e-mail above. Thank you bery much.
My grandfather was from Barovka. He come´s to Argentina in 1929. I wanna know more about because in the list of inmmigrants he figures like married but here he married again hehehe and another things. He was Josip Bogovic.
My great uncle told me that the Bogovich’s left Croatia for Austria but when the First World War started Austria had most of immigrants on the battle field first so some of the brothers (almost 8 of them) among other family members left for the Americas and landed in Panama, from there some went south all the way to Argentina, in my case I’m Peruvian, where is where my ancestry starts with the Bogovich’s, and others went north.
My great grandparent, Antonio Bogovich, born in Austria around 1,845, came to work in Peru and lived in Nepena (Ancash). His wife was named Nicolasa. They had a son named Jorge Bogovich, who got married in Nepena with Adilia Barrenechea Lafit, daughter of French parents.
I am Peruvian, and I would like to know if somebody else has some information regarding the origin of my great grandfather in Austria.
