My paternal grandparents ere from Chernivtsi. My grandfather, Abraham Volkov, was born in Khotin to Khaim and Enia. My grandmother, Ita/Ida/Anita, was  born in Sekuryani to Leib Chapoval and Chaika Rubinsky. They both immigrated to Recife, Brazil: my grandfather probably immigrated just before the WWI and my grandmother immigrated in 1920.

Hi Anita, interestingly, my mom said there was a Wolkoff family living in front of them, same floor. We are talking about Recife, Brazil, around the 60s.
Benny (Biniamin) Wolkoff married to perhaps an Ester. 2 children.

Dear Avraham   ?,

 

I look in my Family tree, among more then 150.000 names (30 to 40.000 families names), and I didn’t found any of this families? Volkov and Chapoval. But I found 13 names from Rubinsky, no one with the name Chaika. I have one name only the family name Rubinsky, that was married with Riva Elisabetsky, and them 7 names of Men and 6 names from Women…

 

If you write all the names that the family name is Rubinsky, perhaps we can see if is one that is relative to Chaika (Rubinsky).Please sent me, if you prefer, direct to my e-mail (Fkuperman arroba()yahoo.com.br)

 

Waiting your future answer,

 

Franklin Kuperman

Can I write in Portuguese?

Minha avó nasceu lá e imigrou para Recife em 1920. Meu avô chegou antes, mas ele era de Khotin.  Khotin e Sekuriany são cidades da mesma região: Chernivitsi, hoje na Ucrânia.

Cara Anita:

Guilherme Chapoval é seu tio avô (ou irmão do seu bisavô) ou primo? (nascido em 14.4.1874) Marido de Ida, pais de Rosa. Esses todos eram de Surucon (Secureni)?

Adolpho Wolkoff, filho de Simão e Anna, seu parente?

Elias Benjamin Wolkoff, filho de Abram e Anita, nascido em 18 de maio de 1921 (foto anexa) é o seu pai ou homônimo?

Com um abraço, Fábio.

Anita,

This is so interesting because the spelling is very similar to my last name which I can’t seem to find on any of the records. My father was born in Khotin in 1927 and our last name is Vitcov (so similar). There are very few because in the world but we found one in Brazil. 

My grandmother was Luba Kononovitch (sp?) one of eight sisters and my grandfather was Shlomo (Sam) Vitcov. I don’t know who his parents are as we were told he was orphaned, but I feel like that could be because of some rift.

Ola!

Guilherme Chapoval era irmão de minha avó Anita. O verdadeiro nome dele era Wolko ou volko, ou algo assim. Meus avós eram Anita/ Ita/Ida e Adolfo/Abraham.

Meu pai era Benny. Os pais de meus avô Adolfo eram Chaim e Enia, daí os nomes de meus tios, em homenagem a eles.

Cara Anita:

The photo is from the attached document. Your father was a musician?

Your grandfather Adolfo, husband of Anitta, son of Simão and Anna, born in 1887, for some time wore a very beautiful mustache (photo attached). I'll send you his documentation to your email anitaw...@hotmail.com.

Com um abraço, Fábio.

Obrigada!!🥰
Não esperava! Mas, como eu disse antes, os pais dele eram Chaim e Enia.  Achei ele tão diferente na foto! Nem o reconheci...kkkk

Tentei achar o nome do navio, a data, o ano que ele chegou no Brasil, com quem ele chegou. Você tem acesso a esse topo de documentos tb?

Muito obrigada,

Anita
