Request your assistance in reading the very blurry specific birthplaces of
individuals below as shown on Canadian Passenger Lists 1865-1935.
1. REMPEL, WILHELM b.1868
19 June 1926 -- SS Celtic (White Star), Liverpool to Halifax(?)
Born: Poland, Prachwehn or Prachuoha or Pracheum or ???
Source: Canadian Passenger Lists 1865-1935, Vol. 7, page 73
29 Sept 1927 -- SS Empress of France (CP), Hamburg>Quebec
Born: Poland, Kalisch
Source: Canadian Passenger Lists 1865-1935, Vol. 23, page 152
Note: May have lived in Zhitomir Volhynia area as a young man
(unconfirmed, but very likely)
2. REMPEL, LUISE (JESKE/YESKE/TESCHKE) b. abt 1878
19 June 1926 -- SS Celtic (White Star), Hamburg>Montreal(?)
Born: Russia, Sergeofka or Gergeofka or ???
Source: Same as Wilhelm above
29 Sept 1927 -- Empress of France (CP), Hamburg>Quebec
Born: Russia, Sergeofa or ???
Source: Same as Wilhelm above
Note: Wilhelm's brother Friedrich Rempel/Rimple married Anna Schiller,
born in Murawi Volhynia. Luise and Anna may have lived in neighboring
villages and knew each other.
3. SON: REMPEL, FRIEDRICH b. 1909
27 June 1926 -- SS Celtic (White Star)
Born: Russia, Hofman..... or ???
Source: Same as Wilhelm above
Note: Friedrich's oral history indicates he was born in (sounds like)
"Cha-vee-esh-ka". Could it be "Sergeofka"?
Any assistance would be most appreciated -- even wild guesses!
