Online Roman Catholic Church Records for Novi Vinodolski

There are numerous records found online for Novi Vinodolski in the Croatia, Church Books, 1516-1949 records for the religion "Roman Catholic (Rimokatolička crkva)". However, there are some issues for the researcher with these records.


A Few "Challenges" with these Records

One of the problems for the researcher is that some of these records are clumped together in groupings with unrelated records covering completely different year ranges. It is difficult to figure out where certain records end and others begin.

Another problem is figuring out where in the record group to search for particular year ranges. For example, if you know an ancestor was born around 1895 it would be helpful to know where in the record group of 500 images one could find a range from say 1894 to 1896. I have been working on organizing these images for my own research and plan on sharing "keys" to these records as I discover them so it will be easier to find ancestors in the mountains of records. 


Available Online Records for Novi Vinodolski
(Roman Catholic)

The online records for Novi Vinodolski include birth, marriage, and death records. These records cover a range of years from 1650 to 1900. The break down of these records are as follows:


  • Birth records (cover the entire range of 1650 - 1900). 
  • Marriage records (cover the years 1674 - 1859).
  • Death records (cover the years 1704 - 1782 & 1784 - 1888). It appears that the year 1783 is missing, but I've yet to investigate to see what the issue might be.


However, as I hinted at earlier, these records are not nice and neat in their online groupings. Some image groups will include various records and year ranges. Take a look for yourself and you'll notice the first two groupings of records are somewhat of a hodge podge. These records are found under the heading of "Event types, year range" and are grouped together as follows:
