Hi everyone,

This is my first time posting here, so I hope this is the right place.

I recently inherited a large collection of historical family documents and I’m trying to figure out what exactly I have and who I should talk to next.

The collection is related to the noble Vucetich (Vucetic) family from what is now Croatia.

It includes a large hand-drawn family tree, old charters, handwritten documents, diplomas, letters, documents with wax seals, and other historical papers dating from roughly the 17th to the 19th century.

I’ve spent quite a bit of time researching them, but I’m not an expert, so I’d really appreciate any opinions on whether this looks like something historically significant or valuable, and whether I should contact a museum, archive, university, auction house, or a private collector.

If anyone here has experience with old European family archives or noble documents, I’d be grateful for any advice.

If someone is personally interested in this type of material, feel free to send me a private message as well.

Thanks in advance!

Pozdrav svima,

ovo mi je prvi put da objavljujem ovdje pa se ispricavam ako ovo nije pravo mjesto za ovakvo pitanje.

Imam jednu vecu zbirku starih dokumenata koje sam naslijedio i iskreno vise ne znam kome da se obratim.

Radi se o dokumentima vezanima uz plemicku obitelj Vucetic (Vucetich), medu kojima su veliko rucno radeno obiteljsko stablo, stare povelje, dokumenti s pecatima, diplome, pisma i jos dosta toga.

Dokumenti su dosta stari (1652-1830), a vecina je rucni rad.

Koliko sam uspio saznati, sve je povezano s plemickom obitelji Vucetic de Brinj i njihovom povijescu.

Ne zelim ovdje raditi oglas niti krsiti pravila subreddita, nego me zanima zna li netko kome bi se ovakve stvari uopce mogle pokazati ili ponuditi.

Muzej, arhiv, povjesnicar, kolekcionar…

bilo kakva preporuka bi mi puno znacila.

Ako je netko osobno zainteresiran za ovakvu povijesnu gradu ili poznaje nekoga tko se time bavi, slobodno mi se javite u privatne poruke.

Mogu poslati slike i objasniti o cemu se radi.

Hitno mi je pa bi mi stvarno znacila bilo kakva pomoc ili savjet.
Hvala unaprijed!
