Hello Joyce,

There are at least 135 Manchulenko+ currently listed in Chernivtsi and the general Northern Bukovina Region.

Ancestry.com (SEARCH on very top of HOME PAGE) has 324 references to Manchulenko surname,
19 of which immigrated to US via Canada using Detroit Border Crossing, 4 came via Canada, using St. Albans (VT)
Border Crossing and another 6 were listed as immigrating via the UK, before going on to Quebec & Montreal and NY.

Your Manchulenko surname very likely originated in what is Eastern Ukraine today, but you have to follow the lineage as per Immigrant Ancestor, who came from Bukovyna. The Cossack w/this surname may have arrived in Bukovyna during 14th century, 16th century or 17th century??? You will not be able to make a leap over a few hundred yrs and expect to make a connection.
