While most houses in Slovenia carry a household name, there are some houses which do not exist anymore and were deserted many years before anyone was aware of their existence. The household names for these houses is therefore lost as it was not documented anywhere either.<\/p>\n
Through the period of our studies, we have found seven distinct houses which originally carried the Balkovec surname in Hrast<\/a>. This is the seventh of the seven houses (in order of house address). The Balkovec surname is only originally found in Hrast<\/a> and Zilje<\/a> (including Balkovci<\/a>).<\/p>\n This house had several different families living in it over the period of our research. The original Balkovec family was only here for the first generation of that time period.<\/p>\n The oldest record we have found to date for a person from this house is for the wife of the patriarch Katarina Pavle\u0161i\u010d b. 1790. Together, they had at least 1 child, including:<\/p>\n 1A. Johan Balkovec b. 1818. At this time, it is unknown what happened to him afterwards.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Upon the death of her husband, Katarina Pavle\u0161i\u010d m. ca. 1840 to her second husband Jurij \u0160peli\u010d (Drenovec 1) — they lived at Drenovec 1.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n At this point, the original lineage ended at this house. At this point Johan Panjan (Panjanov<\/a>) and his wife Katarina Mravinec (Hrast 21<\/a>) moved into the house but had no children.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With Johan Panjan and Katarina Mravinec not having any children, Jurij Bro\u017ei\u010d (Gornji Bro\u017ei\u010dev<\/a> from Zilje<\/a>) and his wife Margareta Jaketi\u010d (Peru\u0161i\u010deva<\/a> from Zilje<\/a>) moved in.<\/p>\n Jurij Bro\u017ei\u010d and his wife Margareta Jaketi\u010d had at least 1 child, including:<\/p>\n 2A. Marija Bro\u017ei\u010d b. 1863, m. 1883 to Peter \u017dalec (\u017dal\u010dev<\/a> from Zilje<\/a>).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Margareta Jaketi\u010d m. 1878 to her second husband Miha Flajnik (Bartolov<\/a>). Together they had 1 child:<\/p>\n 2B. Marija Flajnik b. 1867, died at the age of 70. At this time, it is unknown if she was ever married or had children.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
