Register of births, marriages and deaths for Buzet area
Buzet is a town with the population of about 6000, situated in the inner part of Istria, the largest peninsula in the Adriatic Sea.
It is a bordering Croatian municipality towards Slovenia. The town with it’s adjacent area is called Buzeština (meaning Buzet region), which is a typical way of denoting regions around larger Istrian settlements by local inhabitants (Poreč > Poreština, Pazin > Pazinština, Buje > Bujština etc).
Genealogists who would like to research this area should know that it comprises three parishes: Buzet, Črnica and Zrenj. Register books of births, marriages and deaths of Buzet Parish are kept partially in the rectory in Buzet (Župni dvor u Buzetu), and the rest in the State Archive in Pazin (Državni arhiv u Pazinu) or State registry in Buzet (Matični ured u Buzetu).
Rectory in Buzet keeps the following books: batismal recordsfor years 1567-1692, marriage records from 1579 until 1819, death records 1667-1815 and Status Animarum books for 1700’s and 1800’s.
State archive in Pazin takes care of baptismal records from 1821 until 1887, marriage records from 1821 until 1903 and death records from 1815 until 1886.
State registry in Buzet holds baptismal records for years 1888-1948, marriage records 1904-1948 and death records 1887-1948.
The following books are missing for the Buzet parish: 1693-1767 baptism records and 1819-1821 marriage records.
Birth records for years 1869-1948 and marriage records for years 1940-1950 of Črnica parish are kept in the State registry in Buzet. Death records from 1921 until 1972 and Status Animarum records can be found in the Buzet Rectory. Unfortunatelly, earlier records are missing, but newer than forementioned are preserved in State registry in Buzet.
Currently, we have no information on birth, marriage and death records from Zrenj Parish except for the fact that some older books, beginning with 1606, are kept in the Church archive in Trieste.

He had two brothers – Karlo and Pepi and a sister, Marija. His dad was Anton Korenic and mother was Franica Prodan (1985-1961). Any information that you provide or direct me to would be appreciated

Susanna,
Not certain where you are writing from but there are Vascotto’s living in Winnipeg, Canada. Two women who have taken on married names. Their parents, Mario and Carmella, came from around Isola (today Izola) in Istria. Let me know if you wish to contact them and I will provide their coordinates.
