While every house in Slovenia has a civic address, many houses also carry a household name. These names are how other people typically referred to that family. This house originally carried the name of Oberšanovi. At this time, it is unknown what the origin of this name is.
Through the period of our studies, we have found three distinct houses which originally carried the Šutej surname in Sečje Selo. This is the first of the three houses (in order of house address).
The oldest record we have found to date for a person from this house is for the wife of the patriarch Marija Bahorič b. 1786. With her husband, she had at least 3 children, including:
