I cordially greet all! My name is Alexander. I'm from Ukraine. Only today I found your forum. And very glad! I'm interested in the history of the Second World War. I am sure that I will find many interesting information on this forum. Best wishes to all! :waving: Sorry for bad english.
Hello Lemeshko. I am new to the forum as well and welcome. My grandfather came to America from the Ukraine in 1911/12. He was from north of Kiev. I have been in contact with family in the Ukraine and last summer met my third cousin when she was in New York City. Once things settle down in the Ukraine I will go visit my family.
Alexander, compared to our collective Ukrainian your English is superb !!!, seriously it is more than fine and welcome here. Sorry about the situation in your country and I agree, say safe. Look forward to your post. Gaines
Welcome Alexander. I hope we can be of assistance to you. Where are you located? I look forward to your comments.
Thank you friends for the warm welcome and attention to me!. :waving: :waving: :waving: Hi Paul! You have a beautiful Ukrainian surname! Not difficult to determine your Ukrainian roots. Very nice that you do not stop communication with Ukraine. My ancestors are from the South of Kiev (Stavishche). Communication with my relatives lost long ago. After the Bolshevik revolution, and the Second World War. Welcome to Ukraine! Although it is not the best of times .. Thanks for the compliments Gaines! Without Google translator, I would not have written a word ... Here where I live, quiet and peaceful environment .. Battles are conducted in 500 km from my town. Thank you Lou! I live in Sumy (Ukraine north). 500 km from the hostilities. Unfortunately not stop fighting. Regardless of the downed Boeing. The Russian mercenaries, there is no limit of cynicism. Armed mercenaries continues to come from Putin :evillaugh: . Tonight, through a controlled mercenaries state border, crossed a large column of vehicles .. -24 truck with mercenaries and 20 units of equipment (tanks and APCs). t's very nice, Dave! Best wishes to you and your grandmother.! Thank you! Excuse me friends! Not enough for everyone "likes". Limit 2. necessarily be corrected later!.
My ancestors came in 1900 from Malniw to Alberta Canada...We visited Malniw last year and found the tomb stones of our ancestors. I was very emotional. My wife still has relatives in Lviv...
