House and family history
The house was built in 1910 by the Filipovski family, i.e. it was built at the time when two of the four brothers, Arse and Ilija, decided to build houses on that place. This house, on the front and above the porch door, bears the name of Arse. One of Arce's sons, Dojčin, built a third house next to this house, but that house was demolished. Arese's second son, Riste, had three children: Jakov, Kare and Olga. Kare and Jacov had no offspring and probably died young. Thus, the whole house belonged to Olga Filipovska. In the early 1920s (probably 1923), Olga married Jovan Melovski. Jovan moved at his wife's house and since then this house has become a Melovski owned house. Jovan and Olga had six children: Miloš, Risto, Dingo, Ilija. Dragica and Mara. In 1964, Jovan, due to the great need for teachers, got the opportunity to teach as a teacher in Skopje. According to 2021, the house is maintained and used by the descendants of Risto, Dingo and Ilija.Statement of Dime Melovski - descendant (grandson) of Dingo Melovski. Date: December 2, 2021.
