It was five years after 1923 that she she came to Canada with three children to be with grandpa Joe who was already there, I do not know their reasons for going to Canada though I believe available land was significant. The Russian revolution occurred during the first world war replacing the structure the Tsars used before the war to communicate with other nations, Germany's king was gone after that war also. I was told grandma believed Anastasia was still alive.SI Message - I recognized this using "respect the girls" with Mary's references to 'rail fence' and legal subdivision co-ordinates) and it was the people in power who did the killing. I have wondered why Novogorod which has been there since the time of Kiev-Rus is not a bigger city today than it is. The debt/gdp statistics I see on tradingeconomics.com for Russia look stable to me. Kristina, a friend of my sister's I met at Buffalo Lake, told me that for Russia 'it is about family' SI Message which seemed to match the "look after the kids and the dollars will look after themselves" I was taught. I have formed a belief the people in the Slovakia area and like regions prior to the first world war did not want to 'pick a fight' and it was probably frustrating to deliver an important message to someone speaking a different language, sometimes just regional news, and sometimes just being a good neighbour with the people not to concerned about the national leaders as they were a long way away from the capital cities. Hopefully that belief looks like 'The sea voyage took nine and one-half days, five of which were on very rough seas, making many people sick.' or "9/5ths" in alignment with "look after the kids and the dollars will look after themselves".SI Message .
