I do not see Sop (Sopp). My “brick wall” is my grandfather who has in his USA documents that he was born 27 Aug 1889, in Gornji Kosinj, but Robert Jerin (USA Croatia FB) said he was born in Rudinka, Doni Kosinj. I can’t find ANY information about him in Croatia (Yugoslavia, then). I would like more details about him and his family and ancestors. BTW Ales Kuretic is my 6th cousin once removed (on my Mother’s mother’s side–Slovenian). Marko was my mother’s father (Croatian).

I am trying to locate information on my paternal grandfather (Richard Domenick Stefaney). His immigration certificates show that he was from Miholašćica and that he was born on 19 April 1896. His surname may have been modified.
Another relative spells the surname as “Stefanich”. His name was Anthony Jacob Stefanich (Born 25 July 1892). I believe he was Richard’s brother.
Other relatives include Cosmo Stefaney (Born 17 December 1888) and John A. Stefaney born (27 April 1883).
Any help on finding out about our family heritage, name and family lineage would be greatly appreciated.
SRAKA or SZVAKA from Zagreb area, any info?
