Hello all. I'm looking for any information on the above surnames from
Croatia.

(Paul?) Poverzenic came to the US about 1910. His wife was a
Yezerinac. Not sure where they came from in Croatia. Their son,
Michael (1912-1989), changed the spelling of their name to Povrzanich.

Rose (or Rosa) Mauzer (1873-1950) came from, we believe, a town by the
name of Primorje (?). (I've been told that the town is near the sea.)
Her fathers name was Tomas.
Her husband , Josip Kostelac(1876-1960) was from Kostel, near Pribic.

All of the above came to the US in the early part of the century, and
settled near Fayette City, a small town on the Monongahela River in
South West PA (Fayette County)
