Back in the summer of 2015, my wife Nicole and I decided to visit the Balkan region, particularly Croatia. We were intrigued by the beauty of this country, but also wanted a chance to explore Cunski, the original home of the Faresich clan.
The photographs that follow will show a little bit of our stay in Cunski, but more importantly, they will show some of gravesites that we found in the small church cemetery in town. I have included various photos of graves from the many number of Faresiches found there, as well as some with the name Carcich. As I understand it, there were at least a few marriages between the two families.
The town of Cunski is in the middle of the island of Losinj (pronounced low-sheen). A little further south is a small vacation town called Mali Losinj. The island of Losinj is accessible from the larger island of Cres, which in turn is accessible by ferry boats from the mainland. I had no idea how remote this little village would be, but even now, it can be a bit of a challenge to coordinate a visit here.
