The English Y is a J sound so your Yurek is JUREK in Slovak.
No Drovana. From what records are you getting this (mis)spelling?
Village in SK starting with letters DR: Drabsko, Drahnov, Drahovce, Dravce, Drazice, Drazkovce, Drazovce, Drienca

The book with family names would be an ancestral village church record.
