His real name would most likely have been Vojnić, which over the course of almost a century in Canada would have been changed to what must have sounded like Winage to people in the Yukon Territory. Certainly no name Winage has ever existed in Serbia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.245.173.107 (talk) 20:07, 3 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

hey, this article says his name was Wenovich but he shortened it to Winach/Winack. It also mentions Yugoslavia.

That was how I met Mike Wenovich, whose last name had been shortened to Winach...
