Cestnik, Toney Slovenia circa 1825

My grandfather, Vincent Cestnik, came to America in 1903 on the Kaiser Wilhelm. He left Bremen, Germany on March 10, 1903. Naturalization papers say he was born in Trbovlej, Austria. I believe that may be Trbovlje. Other relatives say Ravne na Koroskem. They are in the same area. His father came about the same time. I don't know if it was the same time or not. The father's name was John Cestnik. John's wife was named Ana Petelinsek. She is not listed in the 1920 Census. John's death certificate says his father's name was Toney, perhaps Anton. There were three sisters Amelia, who married Martin Verveja and had the name changed to Rager, Gertrude, who married John Zaman and lived in Cleveland and Maria, who was married in Loeben, Austria and never came to America. I am looking to find information on Toney Cestnik and his relatives in Slovenia, John Cestnik and his wife Ana Petelinsek. Any information and leads would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
