I think it could come from the Island of KRK. It could exist in USa as well. Could someone tell me the origin of the surname please?

Thank you

I take it that you are aware of the Italian (Trieste?) surname, Scrobogna, and considering a common origin? It makes sense.

Actually, Skrobonja is one of the many variants of the Albanian placename Zgërbonjë as you can see at tinyurl.com/o5ttyww.
