Researching my husband’s family. Having a hard time trying to find his paternal grandmother’s family name. Her first name is listed as Kathrine, Katie and Catherine depending what record you find but I have established they are all the same person. Data says she came from Poland before Poland existed. There are two names found at the LDS site Bojak and Bodeuck, neither of which can be traced anywhere. Her mother is listed as Annie Batur born 1870, father is Joseph Bojak also born 1870. I’ve also found an Ellis Island record that shows her father was deceased before she was old enough to get permission to marry so her mother approved the marriage and here trip to the USA to marry. She lived in Palmerton, Pennsylvania. I would love to be able to find anyplace to start. We are living in the EU now so travel to Croatia would be easy.
