==Cadet lines==
After the death of King [[Stjepan Držislav]] and succussion struggles between his sons [[Svetoslav Suronja]], [[Gojslav of Croatia|Gojslav]] and [[Krešimir III of Croatia|Krešimir]] the Trpimirović dynasty divided into two branches: the main Krešimirović branch (descendants of Krešimir) and Svetoslavić branch (descendants of [[Svetoslav Suronja]]). Gojslav had no children.
According to a version of the [[Chronicle of the Priest of Duklja]] from the [[12th century]]:
"King Predimir lived for many years and saw his sons' sons before he died at a ripe old age. He was entombed with great honour, reverence and glory in church of St. Peter in the episcopate of Rassa.
His brother Cresimir [Crescimir] had a son named Stephen. After his father's death he ruled White Croatia and Bosna, and after him they [his descendants ?] always reigned in Croatia...."
