Where were the Rukavinas?
Dad sent along a link to this interesting Ancestry.com page that provides a map, from the 1920 U.S. Census, of all the Rukavina families in America. Also interesting to note their definition for the last name:
Croatian and Serbian: nickname from an augmentative form of ruka ‘hand,’ a nickname for someone with large hands.
