This is the genealogy of the known families of Frank Furar and John Drasler. Both were lifelong residents of Slovenia, hence the Slovenian coat of arms on this page. All of Frank and Mary Furar's children came to the United States. John Drasler and Mary Milovec's daughter Mary came to the United States while her brothers all remained in Slovenia.
I do not consider myself the family spokesman, or genealogist, or anything else. I looked for this info on the net and didn't find it, and I had it, so here it is. I apologize in advance for any typos or missed information; if I made your mother your aunt or some such, sorry about that!
I am very interested in finding any additional information to add to this tree, at the bottom, at the top, or by filling in the collateral branches of the ancestors of those who married into this tree. If you have any additional information, or if you find yourself in this tree and just want to say 'Hi' to your distant cousin, please email me.
