I think it will be very complicated. If it was England or Italy... but Croatia...
Anyway, if I were you, I'd start with Croatia Embassy. Just contact them and without going into details, ask what to do.

The first thing that you need to do it get all of the details possible from your dad. Even little things like when did he move here, why, from where (city) and anything he can remember, even neighbors names. How did he get the land and where was the transaction recorded. All of this will make it easier to find and possibly document the ownership.
