Born as Franc Kodila on August 25, 1857 in Ivanovci. To honor his compatriots, he changed his family name to Ivanóczy. He studied theology in Budapest, became a chaplain in Murska Sobota. In 1885 he received a doctorate in Scripture and Assyriology. From March 1889 until his death he was the parish priest of Tišina. He was a national spokesman for the Prekmurje Region and fought for the rights of the Slovene language in the church, school and press. Other nationally committed priests were alongside him (Jožef Klekl, Ivan Baša, Jožef Klekl Jr., Jožef Sakovič ...). He wrote numerous religious articles, published monthly magazines, and founded the Glowing Heart of Jesus Association.
