Other spellings I have are "Wasman" and "Wasmann". A Bernard Wasman was born in a village named "Tarsof" in the Province of Dongalette (which I believe is the Don Kosack region in Russia). He married an Ursula Fahl from the same town and had 19 children. They did move to Saskatchewan, Canada in 1912.
I've never been able to locate this village. Bernard's Russian passport indicated that his name was "Wassman", but he changed it to "Wasman" when he came to Canada and then his children he gave the last name of "Wasmann". Go figure. His brother (I have no name) also lived in Saskatchewan.
Bernard was born on Aug 15, 1883.
That's all I have except for his children.
