List of Albanian families fleeing Antivari to settle in Istria in 1611

List of Albanian families fleeing Antivari and Cattaro to settle in Istria in 1611

The following list records several Albanian families who emigrated from the territory of Antivari (Bar) and surrounding Montenegrin–Albanian borderlands to Istria. The document provides names, and although Slavicized with ic-suffixes, these were Orthodox and Catholic Albanians. I have therefore corrected the names.
