Just received the 1940 Canadian Registration report on my great Aunt
Julianna Jess born March 4, 1868. Her marriage record states born in Kalisch. I
have birth records of two of her siblings born after her in the Lublin area and
a brother born in Volhynia near Torczyn in 1883. On the 1940 record she
gives her birth place as Mlynow NW of Dubno, which is close to where I know the
family lived for many of their years in Volhynia. She gives Lublin as the
birth place for both of her parents, quite sure that information is way off.
The birth village response was a surprise and disappointment after waiting
so long for the report. The speculation could go on forever why she answered
the question that way. Did not understand the question, forgot, wanted to
mislead - it was 1940 and so on.
Beside the birth and village information there was not much on the report.
Wanted to share my experience with you.
