Surnames: Elia, Ilia, Paulencu, Zilinsky
I am looking for relatives from the Chernivtsi, Bucovina area. My g-g-grandmother was Varvara Elia (b. 1861), daughter of Constantin Elia and Iliana Paulencu. Siblings for my g-g-grandmother include a brother Elie and a sister Natalia. Varvara married Marko Zilinsky (scii) and emigrated from Voloca, Chernivtsi, Bukovina to Saskatchewan, Canada in 1899.
Spelling of surname may have been Ilia and then "anglicized" to Elia
