kLYMKIW

[schneiderel]

I am looking for the roots from my grandfather. Elias KLYMKIW born 15.07.1893 in Dziedzilow/Busk/Lviv. He was greek-katholic. His parents were Johann Klymkiw and Melanie, born Huniowska. He was soldier in the WWI at the K.u.K.-Army. He was hurted and meet his wife at the hospital in Vienna. In Austria we are the only, but in America, Canada and so on there are some people with this spelling. I dont know about brothers or sisters or anyone. Where can I look for some informations?

Welcome Elizabeth. Happy New Year !

Don't worry about your English, it is fine.

Elias (probably called Ilko by family) was born in Dziedzilow (Дідилів/Didyliv) > today in Kamyanka-Buzkij raion/district. Father (Johann = Ivan???) and Mother (Melania) were from Humniowska (Гумниська/Hymniska)> today in Buskij raion/district > Lvivska oblast/region > Ukraine.

Hannia: I forwarded an obit to you about a Walter Klymkiw who lived in Winnipeg. Don't know if it is on any interest on this topic, but I hope so. Walter was a cousin of my husband.

Hello Joyce.

Thank you for your help. Where did you send the obit? I have not received it.

Huniowska was the maiden name from Melanie wife of Johann Klymkiw, parents of Elias Klymkiw. I dont know if someone from the nearest family was emigrated. I know that lives many Klymkiws in Canada and the US. But thanks for the answer. Maybe we are relatives.

Elizabeth,

Sorry, I misunderstood regarding GGrandmother Melania.

Have you ever researched LDS (Mormon) Films?

Do you have an approximate birth date for Grandfather?
