I started collecting information on my great grandparents, the Toporowski's from my mothers side who came to Manitoba in 1902 from Galicia. Since late 2012 I interviewed numerous relatives in person, by phone and written correspondence. I have searched for countless hours to verify dates and made a trip to several cemeteries across the prairies to take photos. I am close to publishing a book with family trees and written stories including the families that became related through marriage. I have done a lot edits, bios and family links. Bios are a valuable resource and provide a more permanent record of that person's journey as us seekers know - obituaries tend to disappear off the internet over time. My thanks go out to fellow contributors who are making the F.A.G. site a wonderful tool for finding our roots.

PS: The Walcer clan is my last chapter, those wishing to may transfer memorials if I request them, the choice is always up to you and I will honor that as well.
