In “A History of Croatia” the name is first mentioned in the 12th century (if my memory is correct). I believe the spelling referenced was “Cindrij” Recently, an Austrian friend told me that the name was very old and perhaps predates the slavic tribes, which is surprising since it appears similar to other names. I am curious about what it means.
We are Cindrich in USA too.
Najstariji podatak koji je meni dostupan (govorim o svojoj obitelji) je Georgius (Jura) Cindrić rođen 1773. godine u Ogulinu. Umro je 1864. g. u Bjelovaru. Njegovi potomci – moj pradjed Jopip Cindrić rođen 1811 (nemam podatak gdje je rođen) – od 1830 (+/-) živio je u Zagrebu. Kasnije seli sa obitelji u Bjelovar. Najstariji sin Ivan rođen je u Zagrebu, a ostala djeca u Bjelovaru. Dio obitelji ostaje živjeti u Bjelovaru do smrti, dio seli u Križevce pa u Zagreb, gdje uglavnom i danas žive potomci Ivana Cindrića.
