Sergej, I'm confused about the spelling of my grandfathers name. On his deathy certrificate it is spelled Juro. Mr. Jerin spells it Gyuro. And Roko spelled it Djuro. Which do I go by when looking for information? I know you said that was very important to know.

Djuro is the Serbian Latin spelling. The other ones are the English versions. Yes it is important. Serbian is a lanuage that you read like it is written and vice versa. But one letter difference makes a world of difference in the meaning and location e.g. of a name and place.
Most likely immigration records have the name spelled like Juro.
Regards,
Sergej
