My father, Martin Ilczyszyn b. 10-7-1918, born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, d.6-7-1991, died in Cicero, Illinois, formerly of Chicago, Illinois, and my mother, Maria (Loyko) Ilczyszyn, b.7-25-1925, formerly of Chicago, Illinois, currently residing in Cicero, Illinois, born in the village of Lebedyn, Schplonska R-N, Cherkaska Oblast, Ukraine, came to the United States via New York from Germany. They met in a forced labor camp. Married in Germany and two children followed, daughter Anna (Ilczyszyn) Mural, b. 5-7-1947, in Germany, currently residing in Cicero, Illinois and Vladymir (Walt)Oleh Ilczyszyn, b.7-18-1948, born in Germany, married to Victoria (McGuire) Ilczyn, b.4-7-1948, formerly of Dabuque, Iowa, both currently residing in Itasca, Illinois. The family emmigrated to the US in 1949-50. Another son was born, Dmytro Stefan Ilczyszyn, b. 8-28-1954, in Chicago, Illinois, d. 6-20-1993 in Cicero, Illinois. Finally me, another daughter, Teresa Oksana (Ilczyszyn) Smith Harkey, b. 6-21-1959, in Chicago, Illinois, currently residing in Lake Geneva, Wiscosnin. I know of my maternal family living in Lebedyn, but very little about my paternal side. I believe my father's mothers' name was Yustina Ilczyszyn and a sister by the name of Yuliana Ilczyszyn. My Dad mentioned a relative by the name of Mihaylo (Michael) Mikita that emmigrated to Canada around the same time. I would really enjoy finding information regarding my paternal side of the family along with any other information regarding any of the subjects mentioned.
