My chapters are on (1) Bukovinian settlements in Canada, and (2) how to do research into one's Bukovinian forebears. Author of articles on the subject, notably in the June 1995 issue of the Saskatchewan Genealogical Society's Bulletin under the title, Climbing the Beechwood Tree: New Directions in Bukovinian Genealogical Research.

Today, Bori is part of the town of Gura Humorului, Suceava, Romania.Maria Becker, Larry R. Jensen, and Dr. Sophie Welisch are tracing all
the descendants of these colonists. Many other families in the Roman
Catholic parish of Gurahumora - which also includes the towns of Bukschoja,
Frassin, Paltinossa and Schwarzthal (and used to include Pojana Mikuli) -
are related to these lines. We have several thousand individuals descended
from these families in a PAF database, from the USA, Canada, Germany, Austria,
Romania, and Brazil. We will be glad to correspond with anyone related to
these families, and we plan to publish the results of our research in a book.
Please contact: Here is a list of the original Bori colonists (not counting the family
members that accompanied them):
ALTMANN, ANGER, ANHAUSER, BALLOK, BAYERL, BEER, BIALY, BRAUN, FUCHS, HALTUCH, HARTL, HEFFNER, HELLMANN, HICKE, HORN, KISSLINGER, KOLB, KWASNICKI, KWIATKOWSKI, LOHMER, LOY, MIEDL, NEUMAYER, OBERHOFNER, PEKAR, POPOWNIAK, RANGOSCH, SAWILLA, SCHINDELAR, SCHULHAUSER, STURDZA, TANDA, TAUSCHER, TURCZANY, WODNICKI, and ZAWILLA.
