Dear Analima:

Your grandfather immigration is recent, during WWII. To search about him you will need more data than his name and his parents name.
Probably a lot of theese data you will find in his documentation or in Brazilian immigration registers. Search for birth date and locality, religion,original name's orthography, etc.
If he had naturalized Brazilian, perhaps you can find the data and copies of his original documentation.


Cara Ana:

A imigraГЦo de seu avТ И relativamente recente, durante a 2╙ Grande Guerra Mundial. Para pesquisar sobre ele vocЙ necessita mais dados do que o nome dele e de seus pais.
Provavelmente uma boa quantidade destes dados vocЙ encontrarА na documentaГЦo dele ou nos registros brasileiros de imigraГЦo. Pesquise a data de nascimento, local, religiЦo, ortografia original dos nomes, etc.
Caso ele tenha se naturalizado brasileiro, talvez vocЙ tenha facilidade em encontrar os dados e mesmo cСpias da documentaГЦo original.

Analima,

Immigration to Brazil 1943 - middle of WW2???

Largest immigration to Brazil from 1937 through 1943 was Mennonite German (often referred to as Russian Germans, fleeing Stalin in what is Ukraine today). Evim??? ( EFRIM/EFRAIM) could have been traveling with a German family??? These families were large and frequently had a local male peasant help with baggage and children, in exchange for fare/ticket. MY GUESS IS THAT IS HOW EFRIM IMMIGRATED TO BRAZIL.

Concentration of Mennonites in Ukraine during time frame above: Vohlyn , Crimean, Odessa & Lviv Regions??? Additionally, Efrim is a given name more common in Eastern Ukraine???

What religion did Efrim practice?

Traduction by Hannia solicitation:

ImigraГЦo para o Brasil - 1943 - meados da 2╙Grande Guerra Mundial

A maior imigraГЦo para o Brasil de 1937 a 1943 foi de AlemЦes Menonitas (freqЭentemente chamados de Russos AlemЦes, fugindo de Stalin da atual UcrБnia). Evim??? (EFRIM) poderia estar viajando uma famМlia alemЦ??? Estas famМlias eram grandes e freqЭentemente tinham junto consigo um camponЙs local que ajudava com a bagagem e as crianГas, em troca da comida e da passagem.
MINHA SUPOSIгцO и DE COMO EFRIM IMIGROU PARA O BRASIL.


A concentraГЦo de Menonitas na UcrБnia nesta Иpoca obedece o esquema seguinte: VolМnia, CrimИia, Odessa e regiЦo de Lvov???^Adicionalmente, Efrim И o nome mais comum no UcrБnia Oriental???

Que religiЦo Efrim praticava?

Analima:

Your grandfather's birth local, Baranowitschi, according German traduction may be write: Baranovitschi, Baranowicze, Baranovitsi, Baranavitchi, Baranavichi, Baranavicy ou Baranavichy, theese two lasts probably the bests writings in latines characters. It is a city and neighbouring in Brest (Bierascie or Bretskaya) region (state?), today in Belarus.
This region was under German jurisdiction in WWII and suffered with greats battles between German and sovietics forces, with greats humans and materials losts .
This, perhaps, elucidates why your grandfather's names writing observes a German transliteration and elucidates, too, his great mental pain.
To search, you will need a best knowledgment about your grandfather's names to a correct kinship identification. Hannia's explanations are importants to this and I guess that she could explains you much more about the region and the search.
Try the web's adress to initial informations(Baranavicy is below BREST).

O local do nascimento de seu, Baranowitschi, segundo a grafia vinda por origem alemЦ, pode ser escrito: Baranovitschi, Baranowicze, Baranovitsi, Baranavitchi, Baranavitji, Baranavichi, Baranawiczy, Baranavicy ou Baranavichy, provavelmente estas duas Зltimas sejamm as melhores forma de escrita atualmente em letras latinas. Trata-se de uma cidade e adjacЙncias na regiЦo (estado) de Brest (Bierascie ou Bretskaya),na atual BielorrЗssia.
Esta regiЦo durante a maior parte da 2╙ grande guerra esteve sobre jurisdiГЦo alemЦ e aМ aconteceram grande parte dos combates entre forГas alemЦs e soviИticas, com enormes perdas materiais e humanas.
Estes fatos explicam porquAnalimae a escrita do nome de seu avТ segue uma transliteraГЦo por via alemЦ e tambИm o grande sofrimento mental dele apСs a imigraГЦo.
Caso vocЙ queira procurar sua famМlia, precisarА conhecer um pouco mais a respeito dos nomes se seu avo para uma correta identificaГЦo de parentesco. As explicaГУes de Hannia sЦo importantes para isto e, creio, que ela poderА explicar muito mais sobre a regiЦo e a busca.
Tente o seguinte endereГo para conhecer um pouco da regiЦo (procure Baranavicy, logo abaixo de BREST):
