Joso "Jojina" Ćulumović (not Ećimović)

Mr Jeso Culumovic, 17, an unmarried farmer from Lipova Glavica, Croatia, boarded the Titanic at Southampton as a third class passenger. To reach his destination of Hammond, Indiana, he bought his ticket from the agent: Johann Isidor Büchel, Buchs for 170 Swiss francs. (ticket number 315090, £8 13s 3d).

Mr Culumovic died in the sinking, his body if recovered, was never identified. Joso Culumovic, zvan Jojina, star 17 godina (roðen 1895) iz zaseoka Prvanselo kod Lipove Glavice, kucni broj 76, kotar Perušic. Roditelji Ivan i Kata. Neoženjen. Kao i Jovo Calic, i Culumovic je na listama cesto pogrešno zaveden kao Joso Ecimovic, a britansko ministarstvo trgovine za njega tvrdi da je "švicarski poljoprivrednik iz Basela". Iako se u vecini lista vodi pod prezimenom Ecimovic, ipak je u jednom dokumentu švicarskog ureda za iseljeništvo upisan kao Culumovic. Prezime Èulumoviæ pojavljuje se i u jednom dokumentu saveznog arhiva u Bernu. Zanimljiv je podatak iz pisma, Što ga je Miroslav Matovina objavio u èasopisu Obzor. Piše mu iz Kanade izvjesni Ivan Culumovic, necak poginulog Jose Culumovica:

Moj roðeni stric s Titanikom otišao u morske dubine... tamo di je joso Hecimovic iz kipove (ilavice 17 godina star, starost i mjesto roðenja se slažu, samo njegovo roðeno ime je joso Cuhimavic, zvani jojina... sjecatn se, kad ih je moj otac vozio, njih sedam u Senj na šif bot i cim je kuci doša kaza je mojoj materi da kad se je s bratom ljubio i rastajali se, da je levi konj tri puta zarza i tri puta nogom zakopa i zagreba, i rece moj otac materi da nece biti s njim dobro i tako je i bilo..." Kartu za brod {serijski broj 315.090) platio je 170 franaka. Putovao je preko agencije Johann Isidor Biichel, a odredište mu je bilo Hammond, država Indiana.

Notes He boarded under his "calling-name" of Ecimovic.
