Mike tells us that he has been collecting various maps all of his life as a hobby. He has been good enough to share this one with us so we may learn more about the areas our ancestors came from.
I will try to add them as they become available to study and for our children to print out and paste in their book reports.
This is a German map of Yugoslavia made 1940.
The yellow parts of the map show where the Serbs lived.

Presently, the library features 8,000 catalogued books plus periodicals and other holdings. This was done with the great work of librarian, Dr. Nicholas Groves, M.A.L.S. and Fr.

You will love some of the features of the Newberry Library in Illinois.
If you search their catalog for Serbian items, you can read some of the old books right on line! What a treat it was to read right from my computer here at home about WWI and the English Serbian Relief Committee, and see the illustrations and photos of the people from that war.

"Here is a feature coverage story regarding the late Mitchell Paige who died Nov. 15, 2003. Mitch+, an American Serb, was a Medal of Honor recipient from WWII with unbelievable exploits."
"The article was published in our Community Paper on June 26, 2008, just in time for Vidovdan. Mitch's mother always had the 'Maid of Kosovo' on her wall as I do in my office." Mike Papich
