Pankiw Family

Hope everyone had a nice Easter. I have been able to find more information on my grandparents.
Wasyl Pankiw was born in 1885 in Kolanki. Married November 18,1909.He had a sister who had a son. My grandmother Maria wrote to them until the late 1950's. Wasyl worked at different occupations including a clerk assistant.Wasyl and Maria knew each other since their early teens. Wasyl was conscritted into the Austrian army in 1906 and served in the calvary for 3 years. He emmigrated to Canada in 1912 with Maria's brother Bill and sister Anna.
Maria Mokrycky (Mokrytska,Mokrycka,Mokrycki) was born in 1888in Daleshowa.Her father's Name was John (Johann) Mokrycky. Born 1856. Died 1897. Her mother was Malanka (Malania) Gukak born in 1859. Her brother Bill (William) was born about 1883. She had an older sister who emmigrated to Brazil around 1910.
She had a younger sister Anna. Maria went to school for 2 to 3 years but had to quit at age 9 to help her 14 year old brother on the farm when her father died. At age 12,she worked as a domestic for a rich landownerand continued to work there until her marriage. She came to Canada in 1914 with her son Nicholas and her mother. I would really appreciated any help that anyone can give me. I would like to find out more about my grandparents and my relatives in the Ukraine and Brazil. Are there any Pankiw's still in the area where my grandfather was born. My grandmother's name is still confusing me. I also found out they were Greek Catholic and my grandmother was really devoted to her religion.

Kolanki
Hamlet size Kolanki > Horodenka was both powiat and gmina. Selo Kolyanky is .8 miles E of selo Dalsehova. FILIAL GC CHURCH WAS IN DALESZOWA. I have already provided you w/LDS Films info for Daleszowa.

In that time frame, it was quite common among Galician Ukrainian villagers to have appx 3 yrs of elementary schooling. In some villages there were no schools and in others there were only three grades available. It varied from village to village. Male children were frequently educated by being sent to a a seminary.

Hi Marcia
I am not sure which Pankiw's I am related to at this time. All the family knows are the direct desendants of Wasyl and Maria Pankiw. We don't know anything about Wasyl's family When I search the sites there seems to be a large number of Pankiws. I really hope to find out more about the relatives from the past. It would be wonderful to find relatives living in other parts of the world today.
