    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: adkearns Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.canada.cangenweb/5095.2.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Since spellings don't translate from Ukrainian, I suppose Cherewka could be another way to spell it. I have very little on our Tcherewkos even though it's my mother's family: Petro Tcherewko (my grandfather) 10 Sep 1914 to 9 Feb 1998. The birthdate might be intentionally wrong; DPs often lied about their vital stats after WWII to avoid being repatriated to the Soviet Union. My grandmother tells me her husband was born in Losowa (which I have located on a modern map as Lozova, Kharkivska Oblast, but also relatively close to Dnipropetrovsk). His parents were Ivan and Olena. I believe Petro was taken to Germany in '42. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
