My maternal grandmother's family were Ukrainian kitchen staff and important servants to the Czars of Russia for generations until Stalin persecuted Ukrainians and they fled to Canada.

I read some of that in your about me, though I don't remember seeing them being kitchen staff for the Czars. Very interesting background your family seems to have. Thanks for sharing. 😊 @Anonymartyr

@GlitterBug She came to Canada at the age of 9 with her surviving family. They became servants in my maternal grandfather's childhood home. They grew up together before they married. After that everything started to go wrong for them.
