I am researching my ancestry back to the region of Chernigov gubernia. My family arrived between 1912-1913, and I was told it was part of a mass emigration from the village of Ushcherp'e, where my family is from. Apparently, large numbers of villagers were brought to the US to work, but it's unclear as to how they got here; it's difficult to find records, though I have heard from an aunt that they came through Canada. Has anybody had experience looking in this area?
