Didicher-Winter-Wilson-Young

Updated September 1, 2003

About Our Family Research


The Didicher branch of my family are Banaters: ethnic German farmers who settled in the Danube River valley in the eighteenth century, in the village of Traunau in what was then Hungary and is now in Romania. My grandfather came to Canada to farm in the 1920s, and married a Scots woman who had also emigrated to Canada.
The Winter branch is the one from Scotland, from Angus county. They were farmers, labourers, wrights, and textile workers.
The Wilson and Young branches are Canadian: a mix of English, Scottish, Irish, a little Pennsylvania Dutch, perhaps a little Native blood. They lived mostly in Southern Ontario, and were farmers, ministers, doctors, and nurses.
