Hi, I am facinated, please email me at
autumn23_73@sbcglobal.netMy grandfather was an Austrian citizen from Dalmatia and claimed to live on the island of Lissa before coming to Chicago. I have always wanted to vist the land where my family has originally come from. I wish I spoke Croat, but back in that time, people wanted to become American and speak English so my grandfather only spoke English to his children. Please tell me more about my family history. My grandfather's name was Paul Svalina and his brother's name was Nicholas Svalina. They came to America in 1904-1906
