Dragutin = Charles Variants could be Drago, Dragek PAVOKOVIC is found in the part of Croatia where Marie was from. However Ravokovic is not found anywhere in Croatia. I found none of the names at Ellis Island that you mentioned!

The passenger record had him listed as female. When I looked it up I found it was Luka and male. Then I noticed right above Andrya Ravokovic and Dragutin Fanta below. I believe that Ravokovic must be misspelled. He was going to his mother-in-law and Luka was going to his sister my Grandmother with Dragutin. Andrya's mother-in-law's last name begins with Coje and I can't make out the rest but it looks like the same name as #2 on the manifest which I still can't figure out. Mary
