>were you related to boleslaw czop? that is my grandfather.

As I wrote in my previous post, my father's oldest brother was Boleslaw (Czop). And he emigrated to USA shortly after the World War II

If you are interested in your grandfather's Polish roots, ask your parents. They may know your grandpa's birthplace, or some other useful information;-)

Surnames: Czop, Chop, Chopp
Hi Jeanne;

I've recently began doing indepth research on my last name "Chop" and have discovered the following:

- John (Iwan?) Czop arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada 8 June 1904.
- He sailed from Hamburg Germany 26 May 1904 on the SS Albano.
- He was widowed so I don't know my great grandmother's name.
- He came with 2 daughters and 2 sons
- 1st daughter was Tekla Czop and she had two children, Ostap and Natalka
- 2nd daughter was Panka Czop
- 1st son was Semko (Sam) Czop (my grandfather)
- 2nd son was Sylvester Czop

I don't know any more than that. I was told by my father (Semko's youngest son) that we were Ukrainian. However other records show us as Austrian. Semko (Sam) met my grandmother, Sophia Kiez, in Manitoba and they had 13 kids.
Same died in in 1933, and my father was only 2 years old so he never really knew his father. I hope some of this may help. Please let me know if there is a connection. I've been told by older relatives that we're all related in some way.

Jeanne,

If your still around, I just started researching the family history and my great-grandmother was Mindel Czop, from a city in Poland called "Dukla."

The name of my Czop relatives in the US has long since evolved into "Chopp."

Does this mean anything.

I was born in Poland and my dad comes from the Lesser Poland region. We have family in the East Galicia region and that's the region of Poland where most of people with Czop surname live in. I don't know anything about its origins. I read somewhere about a Cossack called Czop, so perhaps it originates from Ukraine?
