Husband, father, blast furnaceman. Native of Austria-Hungary, son of Jovan and Deva Studen. He was married to Smilja, father to Lieva ("Emily") who predeceased him, and of George.

Nick and his wife were living in Rešetar, Croatia when he immigrated to America aboard the S. S. Cassel which sailed from Bremen, Germany, on May 12, 1910 and arrived at Baltimore, Maryland on May 26. He was joining his brother Mane at 2070 Parsons Avenue in Columbus, Ohio, and had two other Columbus-bound companions on his voyage, Jovo Kesic (age 46) and Marko Ilic (age 19) of nearby villages. Nick was described as having brown hair, brown eyes, and being six feet tall.

It is unclear when his wife and daughter joined them in Columbus, nor when they moved to Sharon, but were not there long when tragedy struck. He died defending his family from armed intruders, and his widow and young son returned to Columbus, where the former only survived him by six weeks.
