Milanko's Parents

During my 2015 visit in the Balkans, I was welcomed warmly by family in Serbia.

This includes a visit to Milka who is one of Jandre's niece (and so one of Alexandra's cousins).  She and her husband were extremely warm and welcoming.  It was a delight to visit to visit with her.

As part of our visit I asked her about our family tree.  I learned that Milanko's parents were Vasa Kljaić and Mara.  She did not know Mara's maiden name or their birth dates, but this is still a huge piece of information.  Especially as we look into the Austrian-Hungarian records, it will be helpful to have two more names to help stitch together the records.  Including this information gives us our current family tree (the other update is the addition of Stana's Maiden Name - Opalić):
