I'm doing research on my husband's side of the family. They lived in Canora.
Looking for any information that anyone could give me on anyone with these surnames. My husband's Uncle John Karpick, still lives there but I am looking for more info that could help me research further.

Maybe someone out there knew these people??? I would be delighted by any response :)

TIA!!

Hi. Joe Karpick was married to my Aunt Nelly. They lived on a farm in Canora. We visited them often in the 1960's - 1980's. There are lots of relatives in Alberta and Sask. My Aunt Olga in Edmonton would be a good person to contact for info on him. Write back if you get this; since you've last logged on in 2000.

Any Shabbits/Shabits from Canora would be related to the same line. What were Mabel's parent's names? Mabel must be a daughter of one of the 11 Shabbits children perhaps?

We went to Canora this past summer and I took a bunch of Shabbits/Shabits gravestone photos and related families. I met Albert Shabbits's wife, Nancy there in Canora. Albert died in 1983. We also went to David Shabbits's daughter's wedding in Canora while we were there. Maybe these names ring a bell?!

Looking forward to hearing back from you,

Hi Crystal,

John & Andrew are two of seven children of Roman and Alexandra Shabits.

John married Magdalena (my husband's line)
Andrew married Josephine (your line)

Last summer I took a picture of John & Magdalena's gravesites which are at Tiny, Sask. Church.

You are definately related and I can finally piece together how you fit into the tree :o)

Hope to hear from you soon,

There were actually thirteen children of John and Magdalena. I also saw a passport of John's in my father's things. (Roy's; real name is Roman) things. The surname was "Zebec" but we figure that his english was so bad, that the canadian govt. just spelt the name the way it was pronounced by Roman. Thus, the various spellings of the surname.

Suggest that if you don't have the historical book, The Hands of Time, that you can now view its contents on-line at: http://www.ourroots.ca/e/toc.aspx?id=3613

You will obtain a lot of genealogy info about the first Polish and Ukrainian settlers who took up land grants in the Buchanan District. The only item that this website does not include is the 1913 Landowners map covering Townships 31, 32 and 33 and Ranges 4, 5 & 6.

There is a good chance that your Shabbits ancestors and my wife's grandfather, Dan Zaplitney, were part of the first homesteaders who constructed the Ukrainian Catholic Church located a couple of miles north of Tiny, Sask. See. p. 136.
Andrew Shabits homesteaded was at SE Sec 32, TP 31, R 4. If he went north 1/4 section from his home and turned left on the dirt road for 6 quarter sections (= 1 mile), he would be in front of the said church. If he continued pass the church for the rest of that quarter section and turned right, he would be at Dan Zaplitney's farm on the left.

At the said site, if you go to page 656-661, you can read about the Shabits (only one "b" in the surname). Andrew Shabit's photo is on p.656.

In my genealogy data base, I have Edmund Genoway marrying Elsie Ternowski, the daughter of Ludwig and Catherine Ternowski. My wife's grandfather, Dan Zaplitney, married Julia Ternowski in 1910.....she is the sister of Ludwig.....their father was Anton & Annie Ternowski.

Hope this is of some help for you.
