Krkljes Family History
My parents were born in Dalmatia (now Croatia) around 1920 and arrived in U.S. 1951. I am beginning a search of the family tree, etc. I assume that my grandparents would have been part of the Austrian/Hungarian Empire since they were also born and lived in Dalmatia. Would death and birthcertificates and similiar documents be found somewhere in Croatia or where? My father believes any such documents would be part of the local orthodox church which now be lost after the most recent conflict...Also, anyone know if the surname is a place name or have some meaning....I know there is an island "Krk" but do not know if it forms the basis for the name.
Thanks.
