14. a 1,000 pictures? Wow
Edited on Mon Aug-27-07 04:34 AM by liberaldemocrat7
Did you happen to pass through Mukachevo or Dobromil by any chance? My great grandfather used to run the train station in Mukachevo ( Munkacs ) over 100 years ago.

You see, a good deal of the Austro-Hungarian branch of my family came from 2 cities now in Ukraine, Mukachevo ( the Former Munkacs, Hungary ) and Dobromil which used to reside in the former Austrian Crown colony of Galicia. ( No, not the spanish area by that name. )

My grandfather born in 1893 left Mukachevo ( Munkacs), 100 years ago and came
here to New York, and his father, born in Dobromil in July 1865.

So even though I have lived in America since birth in 1949, some of my family came from cities now in Ukraine.

I would love to see more pictures.

Oh and if you want any pictures made into either a poster, a jigsaw puzzle or placed upon a dinner plate, I can do that for you.
