→The Zuvela’s Arrived on the West End of Korcula in the Early 1600s
His wife is not recorded but based on family trees there seems to be five sons. The sons have no date of birth and it can not be confirmed that they were born on the island of Korcula. This would suggest that they arrived as a family unit; Father, Mother and five sons.

Genetically via the male Y gene the data places them in the Eastern Mediterranean (Greek origins). There are very similar Greek surnames to Zuvela and most promising is Zouvelos. The shared spelling (and feel) is very close.

The name Antonio suggests Italian heritage but it might not be the case. The 1642 reference is based on the written language of the Republic of Venice, so no certainty on the origin story there either.
