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.
