I am searching for more information on my grandfather Djura Borisic (Borisich). I believe he was born in Trbusani or close to there Cacak area. I never met my grandfather he died before I was born, but I have seen many pictures, and have pictures of his father and mother's gravestone in Yugoslavia. Their name was Adam Borisic and his wife Dragica. I don't know her maiden name.
I know the dates they were born and died. I am trying to find more info about when and where they were married. And how many kids they had, so forth and so on. I also know that my grandfather was in WW2. A Chetnik soldier and was a POW in Germany, Unterneukirchen. Near Austrian boarder. He met my grandmother there got married had 2 kids and came to US in 1951. I would like to find out more lineage and to see if I still have relatives there. Hvala! ----Sacha

Hi Sacha,
First check with Ellis Island to see what data they have on your grandfather, and then you can write to the archives in Cacak.

Thank you Sergej,
I did check with Ellis Island records, I have the record of my grandfather wife and children when they came over.
How can I check with Cacak records or how can I contact them to help find for information?
Hvala,
Sacha

Thank you again,
It seems as though 2 relatives tried to contact me last year but I didn't know that they contacted me through the forum to write back to them.
I do have their emails that they gave me. I wrote to them both but haven't heard back anything.
One was named Zoran Borisic.

Send them a PM, see if they react. Otherwise there is nothing we can do.
