Robert, others who answered my e-mail: First thank you all for answering, I probably was not to specific when I requested the information as Robert stated. So here is what I have, The name appeared on the Ellis Island Passenger Record as Wiko Gvozdenica from Trnova, Austria, which I believe to be Croatia. Now I know who of my relatives or at least I think I do, came into this country. My grandfather, Pavao, his two brothers Anton and Stjepan both brothers I located in this country but only Anton did I find on any passenger record along with Wiko. My grandfather I found as I believe Paolo Govozdenica, I say it is him because all matches, year of entry, birth etc. Just have no idea who this Wiko Gvozdenica is as their is no one by that name listed in the research I had done in Croatia.
