Robert, My grandmother's name is Anna Dolezal. I found the name of this city on the Naturalization papers of her brother-in-law. On his Declaration of Intent papers, he lists his wife's (Anna's sister) place of birth as Vojm Kriz, Yugoslavia. On the petition for Naturalization, it is listed as Vojna Kriz, Yugoslavia. These are both typed in, not hand written. When Anna's father, Josef came to the US, the ship manifest lists his last address as Prnjarovac, Vojm Kriz, Croatia. Thanks again for helping to sort this out.
