So what your saying is we might be related...
Jedretic or Grasso is the family names from Mum's side.

I met some of Mum's family today at the internment we finally got to hold for her ashes.
I asked them about the name. It is spelt Jedretić. Original pronunciation is "Yedretich". The J is pronounced as a Y. But upon landing in Sydney, due to language barriers the ić became ich... And that's how it became recorded incorrectly for prosperity.
