Vukelić

Milka's first husband

Zvonimir Matej Vukelić, born 13 January 1883, died 1915 — married to Milka Lucia Papić, who is Hedviga's mother. He is the reason Milka was a widow at twenty-eight with a daughter of eight and a son of two, five years before she married Ljubomir Blažević. A letter to Senj asking for his death entry is drafted and unsent. What has been searched →

Not “of Lika”

This page described them that way for the life of the site. The published Vukelići are at Senj — ten of the twelve placed records — with single entries at Alan (house 8, 1823) and Mrzli Dol (house 25, 1900). Mrzli Dol is the Blažević village, which is not a coincidence worth ignoring.

Three marriages, three families

For fifteen people they are unusually well connected: Michael Vukelić married Stanislava Blažević, Marija Vukelić married Josip Žubrinić, and Zvonimir married Milka Papić. Three of the other eight families, from a family of fifteen.

And they are on the Senj stone

The Blažević grave at Senj stands among neighbours reading VUKELIĆ, TOMLJANOVIĆ, BEZJAK and ROGIĆ. Whether that plot is this Vukelić family has never been checked, and a photograph of the inscription would settle it.
