I occasionally get messages from people who are often impressed with the amount of work I have put into researching my family history and genealogy. Seeing the results of my labour, Lisa from 100 Years in America recently challenged me to write a series of how-to pieces to help those in the early phases of their own Croatian genealogy research. …
