Hi, Angie! Hope you are still searching as your question was posted in 2001. I am Carol, your Uncle Rudy and Aunt Janice's daughter. Just started doing research and have found information on Grandpa Drop. His name on the immigration record is "Matyas Droppa". At age 17 (in 1906), he came over on a ship from Hamburg, Germany along with a woman by the name of either, "Marya" or "Marja" Droppa (she was 19 at the time). It also shows their origin as "Slovenian". Census records show his birthplace as Austria. I believe that is because the place he was born in Austria became Yugoslavia around 1920. As far as Grammy Drop, I am having trouble finding information on her, found her under the last name of Cimmermancic. Also, believe there was another son to Grammy and Grandpa named Joseph who died at a very young age...but he is not shown in any of the records that I have found. Hope this helps.
