Sava GRBA was naturalized citizen. Have you noticed the numbers and date?

I see the place as Zdenci.
About 4 Zdencis in Croatia.

but this Zdenci seems closes to Grubisno Polje.
Zdenczi, Mali Zdenci, Izdenc populated place 45°41' N 17°08' E E M U G Croatia 55.1 miles E of Zagreb 45°48' N 16°0' E

Did you look on Sava's manifest? The naturalization intent numbers and her naturalization date are on the manifest.
You would take the numbers and a date of the manifest with you and try to find her naturalization intent and petition unless someone in the family has her naturalization certificate. Not much information on the certificate but it would tell you which courthouse is her intent filed.

Manifest meaning immigration record? What numbers are you talking about? Could you tell me?

Is it the 12X-7155-4/12/41? If so, where do I search that so I can get a naturalization record?

Yes, the numbers and a date.

...How can I use the certificate number and date to help find my relative's naturalization info?
The short answer is that the certificate number will not help you or the INS to find your relative's naturalization info. However, by providing the date in your request to the INS, it will help narrow down when your relative was naturalized, since your relative would not have been naturalized before the date noted on the manifest
Have a look here at "Manifest Markings"

Not sure if one of these is your Zdenci and thus this is where you need help from Croatia's board regulars.
