Hi everyone.
I'm looking for information on my grandparents. I can't seem to find anything anywhere.
My grandmother's name was Adele Jedyk, her maiden name was Breuer, and my grandfather's name was Walter Jedyk. Together they had 5 children. My grandmother was previously married, and has one son from that marriage, who was later adopted by my grandfather.
They immigrated to Canada from Germany, supposedly in 1950. All I really know if that my grandmother was from Cologne, and she had a sister named Margaret (spelling might be different). I've been told that my grandfather lived in Russia near the Ukrainian boarder. My grandfather had a sister named Lillian, but I have no idea if she ever left Germany.
My maternal great grandparents names were Katherine and Alexander Breuer. Also I've been told that Jedyk wasn't my grandfathers birth name, that it was changed or shortened, but I don't know if this was before he married my grandmother or after.
