Croatian Genealogy

Croatian research is one of the most challenging yet rewarding areas for the family historian. The historical influence of many different nations, peoples and cultures and the variety of languages found within Croatian records can test the skills of even an experienced genealogist. Yet those who persevere are often greatly rewarded: Croatia’s extensive records include some of the earliest found in Europe. The Croatian Genealogy Legacy QuickGuide™ can help you begin to explore your Croatian heritage or assist you in delving more deeply into that search. It features an overview of the history and geography of Croatia, the types and whereabouts of available records, and the various languages in which they are written. The guide provides links to many types of online resources (genealogy guides, translation tools, maps, forums and more), provides a list of publications, and offers a research strategy to follow for success in tracing your Croatian roots.
