Hello LorieK,
My name is Brian Sokolowicz, and I was born here in Canada. My father, Michael Sokolowicz, was orphaned in Poland early in WW2. I don't recall the name of the town he was born in, but he's said before that it was now a part of Germany. He's also told me that his parents are buried in the Ukraine territory. He spoke of an aunt, but I don't have her name at this time. I believe that after loosing his mother, she looked after him for about a year before she placed him in an orphanage and fled to South America, possibly Brazil. He came to Canada in the late 40's by himself as a war orphan. He was 13 at the time. My father is still alive, but tends to be a little vague about the events in his life at that time. My father and I are the only 2 Sokolowicz families listed in the Canadian phone directory. I am very, very interested in finding relatives, or at least family history. My direct e-mail is briansokolowicz@hotmail.com. Please, any help that you or anybody here can give me, would be most appreciated. Thank you.
