@Logan686, it looks like the records for Potok Bosiljevski are not on FamilySearch. I suggest using the Croatia Letter Writing Guide ( https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Croatia_Letter_Writing_Guide) to write to the Karlovac archive at the email address daka-arhiv@ka.t-com.hr and asking for a scan of your grandfather's 1904 birth record. Once you've hopefully received that scan, you can ask whether they could send a scan of his parents' marriage record--however, they may not be willing to do so if it would take research hours, so you may need to ask for contact information of a local researcher. See https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Croatia_Genealogy for additional information.
