Chicago 2008: Suchostaw group meeting

The Suchostaw Region Research Group (SRRG) will meet at the Chicago conference on Wednesday, August 20, from 9.45-11am, announced SRRG coordinator Susana Leistner Bloch.

I have attended most SRRG meetings at the annual conferences as my FINK family has connections to Suchastaw, Skalat, Romanowe Siolo, Tarnopol and other towns. Susana has done a great job in locating resources for researchers with roots in many of the SRRG towns.

SRRG includes the following Administrative Districts: Borszczow - Buczacz - Czortkow - Husiatyn - Skalat -Tarnopol - Trembowla - Zbaraz - Zaleszczyki.

    I have a grandfather who came from Kujdance, Galicia to Ellis Island in 1913. I am searching for records of his family in Ukraine. Can anyone in your group tell me where to look?
