    Giusto Krovatin spoke Italian according to 1930 U.S. Census; https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-GRZT-9JDD?i=2&cc=1810731&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AX7XC-WHC

    The surname Hrovatin themself is after “horvat” which literally means “Croatian”. Unsure if “Slovenian” is accurate.
