In order to satisfy a growing demand to help North Americans explore their family roots in Ukraine, the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies Press has published John D. Pihach's "Ukrainian Genealogy: A Beginner's Guide." "Ukrainian Genealogy" is primarily a guide to tracing one's Ukrainian ancestry in Europe. Consideration, however, is also given to North American records that are specifically Ukrainian or relate to the immigrant experience. Because the overwhelming majority of people of Ukrainian origin in Canada and the United States have roots in western Ukraine or southeastern Poland, the guide concentrates on the resources of those regions. Although this handbook is intended primarily for those whose ethnic roots are Ukrainian, it also offers the material that may be very useful to other ethnic groups with roots in Ukraine. The book consists of 12 chapters, three appendices, a bibliography and an index. It also contains numerous maps, charts and personal documents. Show more
