This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/mNC.2ACE/1842.1 Message Board Post: I am just starting to research my family tree. My paternal grandfather was a Solinski who emigrated to Canada in the early 1900s. Don't know about any Arborg or Gimli connections so far, but there were Solinskis on small farms near Birds Hill when I was growing up. Please get in touch. Maybe we can help each other.
