📑 Notes on Names

• p.d. = po domače → “house name,” tied to farms or homesteads. These are as important as surnames in rural Solčava.

• Neža = Agnes → The Slovene given name “Neža” was consistently translated into English as “Agnes” in later U.S. records.

• Plesnik vs. Piskernik → Same maternal family; the records use farm/house variations interchangeably.

✅ This tree shows how Agnes Kolenc (née Pogorelcnik) is firmly tied to Solčava parish, house Škresnik, with her parents France Pogorelcnik & Barbara Plesnik.
