Q:The passenger list states they were going to Milwaukee, WI to be with Petar Cabunac Helen's husband. I am unsure why she would have called Branko Petar.
A: "In the case of the given name Branko, my guess is that his legal name on church records may be Petar. "
-Given name BRANKO was/is not written as given name PETAR * legal name on church records*.
- given name Branko is normally, legally written in the original church vital records BRANKO - like this:
Branko ( in Latin script)
Бранко (in Cyrillic script)
Given name was the name given at baptism and written into church records.
