Hello,
My name is Anton Kuretich and my family is from the Yugoslavia area. The name was Kuretic before it was 'Americanized'. The name Anton has been in the family for some five generations now and I am interested in finding out more about my family history and others who might have the same ancestry. I live in Colorado.
Thanks,
Anton

There is a record for an Anton KURETIC (correct sp!) in Ellis Island records. arr 1908 destination to brother in Utah. Race of People was listed as Slovenian. Yugoslavia only existed from 1929 to 1991, thus anyone arr in 1908 from what is now Slovenia would have been coming from Austria. He was coming from and born at RAZDRTO Slovenia 28.6 miles SW of Ljubljana

Hello, my name is Kevin Kuretich and I live near Detroit, Michigan and was just searching around about my last name and figured I would reply since many people don't have our last name

I have changed email!!!

Hi,

I noticed that you mentioned Leadville above . . .

Does anyone of you have old photos from Leadville?

I have some unidentified photos from Leadville during the same period as you are discussing.

Would you be kind to check if you can find any match between your photos and my photos or you might have information about some of the persons on my photos? My unidentified photos are published at the Internet page
