My Grandfather Mathew Phillips (Mate Filipovich) was born in Serbia, probably in Janjevo on 21 September, 1887. He fought with the Serbian cavalry in the Balkan Wars 1912-13 and immigrated to the US in 1913. I have learned that he may have had a wife, Marta, who remained in Serbia.
His mother's name was Katerine Glasnovich, probably born in Janjevo around 1860-1870.
He was also Catholic. I have learned that Glasnovich is a Croatian name (Filipovich too?) and that Janjevo has been predominantly Croatian for many centuries.
Can anyone help me search for family records and possible relatives?
Thanks.
Rick Phillips
