Below is the Pecarich Family Tree information that I have so far.
Below the tree are some other Pecarich names that I found in my
research, but do not know if they are related to us. I am not
sure if the following four names are brothers & sisters, cousins
or even related. It is believed that Nicholas Pecarovich is an
Uncle to Petar and that Mitchell, Dinko, and Petar are brothers,
but we are not sure about that either. I do not know where Katie
and Zanetta Pecarich go, whether they are sisters or cousins,
but for now, I am placing them as sisters until we find out outherwise.
None-the-less, here is the information I have so far: There is
also a Barbara Pecaric who married John Marincovic but I am not
sure how she is related here. I am going to put her husband and
their descendants here until I find out that they are not realated.

Pecarich Family Tree
Below is the Pecarich Family Tree information that I have so far.
Below the tree are some other Pecarich names that I found in my

sure if the following four names are brothers & sisters, cousins

are not sure about that either. None-the-less, here is the information
I have so far:
