I am looking for information about my Grandparents:
Jack Martin Car - Born - Nov 9, 1901 Crivenica, Croatia
- Died - July 6, 1975 Vancouver, BC, Canada
- Emigrated - July, 1928 to Canada
Elizabeth Maraga Car (Maiden Name)
- Born - July 3, 1905 Crivenica, Croatia
- Died - November 22, 1998 Vancouver,BC, Canada
- Emigrated - March 10, 1934 to Canada
- Father - Mate Car
- Mother - Dragica Vrbanac'
When they came to Canada they went to Vancouver, BC and my
Grandfather started fishing as that was his trade. We have very
little info about there background in Croatia. Jack changed the
spelling of his last name when the emigration officer said you spell
that like the car and he said no Carr. So, in Canada he is known as
Carr.
