My roots

My grandparents didn;t speak English. One grandfather i never met. All of the grandparents were from Russia.  That's what they said. They were Russian. My grandfather was in the Russian army.  The grandfather I knew was a furrier. His brother was a baker.  Grandpa's name was Sam and his brother they called Juice. Because he drank a lot of juice.  One side of the family was from  Bila Tserkva, a town near Kiev. The others were from Volochisk ( aka Woloczysk) , in the West, near the Zbruch River. It is now  all known as the Ukraine.  Volochisk is in the Volhynia province of the  Ukraine. This is Southwest of Kiev.  My father said his family was  richer than my mom's.  He said  "we had wood floors, your mom's family had dirt floors".  I was impressed  , haha.  I really want to go to Russia/ Ukraine and see where my ancestors were from.  I love the food, I grew up on that food. The language would have a familiar  sound.  One  day  I'll make it there.
