ZUMBERACKI, USKOKI UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF IVAN LENKOVIC
In 1551 Lenkovic leader of 315 Zumberacki soldiers was assigned by the King, 12 Dukes as family tribe leaders. These Dukes received a yearly salary of 24 forents. With these Dukes was a flagbearer, one trumpeter and one drummer. Each in this group received 20 forents per year. The foot soldiers were paid 8 forents per year.

The 12 Dukes assigned as leaders were titled as Captains; leading as before their family tribe, assisting Austria in the war against the Turks. The names of the chosen Dukes, 12 in all, are as follows: Vranes Badovinac, Radovja Bastasic, Pavle Klisuric, Nikola Ivanovic, Lobat Popovic, Novak Nikolic, Stephan Vrancic, Radman Vucetic, Dragisa Vrancic, Sinio Vrajlovic, Radoslav Vulovic and Daja Vulovic. Flagbearer: Vrnes Vukicevic; Drummer: Radic; and Trumpeter: Janko Gasparovic.

In 1567, 100 forents was granted to Duke Vranes Badovinac, Radovja Bastasic and Rade Vujeivic; 400 forents were given tot he Uskoks as compensation for their loss caused by the Turkish War. King Maximillian II on this same date honored the above three Dukes with a title of Nobleman. In 1567 Vranes Badovinac, Radovja Bastasic and Rade Vujeivic were further granted a Kingly Crest. This was the highest honor Emperor Maximillan II could place upon these men, for their leadership of the Uskoci Army.

In 1569 the remaining Dukes were enobled as well by Emperor Maximillian II. They too, were given the added benefits. The Emperor knew by doing this he could depend on his noblemen to include Zumberak’s people into all of the Austrian’s future war plans.
