b.1891. I never knew what oblast, but I think it may be this one because someone else found Makars there. However, Anna left many family members behind in a village, not a city; perhaps it was outside the capital. Her mother's name was Sophie. My mother often spoke of her heritage, about the Tartars and Turks invading long ago and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Anna Makar had an aunt in Lowell, Massachusetts. I would be glad to exchange information with anyone seeing any connection to their family stories. Christine Babick cbabick$$$hotmail.com From: "Ronald V. Mlejnek" <mlejnek$$$email.marc.usda.gov>

Anyone having experience in getting records from this region, I would appreciate anz advise. I have written all the archdiocese (in Polish) and they say they have no records.

Sent: Tuesday, December 26, 2000 5:28 PM Hello! I visited your wonderful site because my father was from Lvov. He left there as a soldier in the 2nd WW and eventually settled in Scotland. Unfortunately, due to illness and then his death in 1963, he never saw his Polish family again. I do not know if he (we) have any surviving family there. His name was Zdzislaw Tadek Stelmaszczuk. If anyone knows of him or any relatives I would love to hear from you. I can be contacted at d.henderson$$$dundee.ac.uk Thanks.

Subject: LEOPOLI
I am writing these few lines for congratulating you for the nice site about your native town and to suggest you a little improvment to it: another name of your native town to be listed! Indeed the Italian name is missing :-) Lvov was always know here in Italy as "LEOPOLI": you mentioned
some hystorical relations of Lvov with Italians (and with Creeks???? Greeks, I suppose) settling and living there so may be you can add also this version on the names list :-) :-) Previously I read of Leopoli only from my modern history classes (because of the bloody battles fought in that spot of old Europe).

Hello,
I am
endeavoring to trace the history and family of my mother, Valentina
Skuratowa, who was born in Lvov on January 17, 1919. She was taken away from her family
at the age of 17 and has had no contact with them since then. If there are any message boards or
directories that are available or other resources you may refer me to where
I can find any information about my mothers’ parents and brothers that were
left behind, I would greatly appreciate it. Is there a directory of residents in
Lvov currently that is available for access? Thank you very much for your prompt

Klimchuk. The reason is to learn more about him and to find out if we are related? I come from a line of Klimchuk's from my mother's side. I am originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. There were a large amount of Klimchuk's that left the Ukraine ending up in the US and Canada in the early 1900's. I 've always wondered if that side were Jewish ? The reason why I don't know is because I never knew or met anyone of them except my grandmother. She passed on when I was very young.

Before the war, my father had a store at 20 Sykstuska and they lived at 8 Sykstuska. My grandmother, Nesze Seligman, lived at 23 Sykstuska.

Firstly I was surfin on the internet, and would like to know everything
about LVOV and I found your beautyfull and very informative site.
Maybe we would like to come to your country next year.
Further I will ask you for help to trace a
family for me. I find it usefull to introduce myself to you first
before I write this letter. My name is Adrian van Zantvoort, 42 years
of age and I live in Holland near Eindhoven.
About 15 years ago I start an research to
wartime crashed aircraft and locating their crews.My research is full
concentrated in the South-Eastern part of Holland. During this time I built-up an archive in which
contains about 350 files of aircraft crashed in my research area. My special
interest is :the Poland flew in Fighter- and Bomber Command during the
second world war. For my concern it seems that they are far from forgotten,
which is not right. As you probably know the Poles liberated the
South-Western part of Holland in the war. As I told you previously I
live close to Eindhoven(famous about the Philips works) were a war cemetery
lies. This war cemetery are about 535 airmen buried(15 Polish
airmen). I looking for contacts with their families, which is very
hard. A few years ago I got in touch with a fiancee of a Polish
fighter pilot( who was killed on 5th March 1945 near Helmond which is close
to Eindhoven), and she would like to get in touch with his family. I found
everything out about the crash, but as I told you we would like very glad to
get in touch with his family.
I shall give you more info about
him;
the Polish airmen in concern was;
Flight Lieutenant Stanislaw(Staszek) Jan
Litak born 3 January 1918
Armyservice number was P-1725. F/Lt
Litak was came from a very small village near LVOV. He was the
youngest of five children, and have four Sisters. He studied
Engineering at the Univercity, and his hobby was flying. By the outbreak of
the war, He escaped from Poland, through Greece and France and arrived in
England in the summer of 1940 where he volunteered for the RAF. On his leave
of the RAF, he met his later fiancee
Mrs Daisy Stothert. After his training
he was detached to the 316(Warzawski) fighter Squadron and flew Spitfires
and Mustangs. He was very talented in playing Piano, and painting art. On
the 5th March 1945 his plane was badly hit by enemy groundfire(FLAK),
managed to bale-out but his parchute refused. F/Lt Litak is now buried
at Eindhoven General Cemetery(War grave section). Daisy Stothert was very
confused about the death of Stanislaw Litak(still are!!), and have so many
plans in the future, also to met Stanislaw Litak's family in LVOV.
After his death ,She placed an memorial in memory of Stanislaw Litak at
Goosnergh(near Preston) in
Lancashire,England and she tried for many years to contact Stanislaw Litak's
family. With this I hope you are able to help me in this matter, or maybe
you have friends who are able to help me, or give me a link!!! It
would be a nice surprise for Mrs Daisy Stothert if she could in touch with
the Litak family. The info as written above
is all that we have I am affraid.
Maybe is there a register of Birth in the archives of LVOV. Thanks
very much for your help in advance and I hope to hear from you
soon,
