Hi, John
Your message caught my eye as I am first generation Australian, mother is Ukrainian who came here with her parents after WWII. The Ukrainian pronunciation of our last name is as yours is spelled however it was anglicised here to Zahirskyj (or Zahirski).My family originates from Berlyn in Ukraine (near Polish border). I am only just starting the journey to trace our history and have many family members who still live in Berlyn but only through my grandmothers line. Unfortunately, I don't speak ukrainian which is a hindrance however am learning (slowly) at the moment.My grandfather, Mickajlo Zahirskyj, also hails from Berlyn however I know little about his family.Do you know where your family are from in Ukraine?I wonder if we are related?
Regards
Alecs
