  Leslie,

  I did not take ownership of your letter, merely conveyed it for translation.   Now that Helen and Karl have correctly noted that the German spelling of Cilke, my head has been slapped a bit, and it makes me wonder if the Polish archives checked only for Cilke, or whether they also checked for Zielke.   It seems so obvious, but it would not hurt for you to send an email to the archives in English and ask them if their search for Cilke included the other variations of Zielke or Zilke or Ziehlke or Zuelke (=Cylke or Cyl or Cielke) and even Cujak.  Make sure that you reference the transaction number in your email so that they know that you already paid for a search.

          Cilke is the Polish spelling for Zielke. It is the different phonics German and Polish use. The Polish C is like the German Z (or TZ) which is pronounced as the English TS. If you see Z in German don't think it gets pronounced like our Z. This is where it really helps to know the phonics of your different languages. Those who  know only English should think beyond the "English phonics" box.

Leslie, Gary and others,

It is also possible that the Cilke name has been changed from Zielke.  There
were Zielke family in Wolhynia.

In the 1911 census, there were Zielkes in both the Edmonton AB and Selkirk MB
areas.

A search in Library and Archives Canada   www.collectionscanada.gc.ca   in the
general search engine for Zielke brought up 28 on the indexed immigration
records from 1925-35 plus some in the Western Land grants.  Amongst other
bits... but also several Cilke names also listed as Polish and German.  Some are
border crossings.

Worth checking as spellings were never consistent and the Z in German is
pronounced as a soft C or TS as in tsar, never hard, as in zero or zebra.

IMHO

Helen
