we'll have finally confirmed what I have suspected for years - my father's side of the family are not "French", as they claim, but Croation!
My surname is an anglicised version of a Croatian name that (without totally giving up my anonymity!) sounds very much like "Mussolini" but isn't...
No-one on Dads side of family wants to know about this, however. They'd rather be French.
Anyway it's quite interesting!
Anyone else ever tried to confront relatives in denial about such questions?
