→THE OLD XUVELLAs
The Xuvellas arrived on the island of Korčula in the 1630s, then part of the '''Republic of Venice'''. Most likely refugees, they settled in the west end of Korčula (back then referred to as Curzola). They set up residency in a small field called Rasohatica (then called Rasohatija).

Two male names come up in my research that are not recorded being born on Korcula (not registered ''via'' church records) but document differently. One being '''Antun''' (Antonio) who is not part of the Žuvela family trees but is mentioned in town documents dated 2nd of February 1642.
