Re: Welcome / Dobrodosli Cikojevici! Zicot
Hello,
My ancestor Jean Zicot died in Belgium about 1700. Hw is said to have been a Croatian Mercenary soldier who stayed after coming in as part of an invading army. Every Belgian with that name traces back to him.
I wonder about the connection to Cikojevici or perhaps Cikot.
What are your thoughts?

Re: Welcome / Dobrodosli Cikojevici! Zicot
Hello,
That is an interesting story. I'm not sure if Zicot has ties to the Cikojevic surname. The Cikojevic name originated from a nickname. Their old surname used to be Trogrlic. The Cikojevic name came into existence closer to the year 1800.
Have you tried looking at the Cikota, Cikotic or Cikatic surnames?
