Hi, Michael,

The source is a newspaper: New York Times
(published in New York, New York, USA)
Date (of report in NYT): December 8, 1929
Date of Incident: Not Specified
Location: Zvezvan, Yugoslavia
Details: A meteortite struck a wedding party in
            Zvezvan, killing one person.

I think that little newspaper is still in business;
maybe they kept some of their old papers in
the basement; who knows? You could check. :-)

Reported in the book "Rain Of Iron and Ice"
by John S. Lewis, 1996, in a table of hundreds of
"Property Damage, Injuries, and Deaths Caused
by Meteorite Falls," found on pp. 176-182.

In my never ending quest of hammers and information
re same, I have come across this puppy a couple of times:

Dec. 8, 1929 Yugoslavia Meteor hits bridal party, killed 1

Note that no name is provided for this fall. It is, of course, not
on the Walter Branch "Hits" page.
        Any info anyone can provide me will be appreciated.
        Thanks, Michael
