Hello,

I am just starting to search for the ancestors and relatives of Peter (Roy?) Mulyk. I would also like to know how to spell MULYK in the Ukrainian (Cyrillic) alphabet. Also, does Mulyk mean anything in Ukrainian?

This is what I know about Peter Mulyk:

- born in the Ukraine in about 1924 (year could be wrong).
- fought for the Germans during World War 2
- deserted the German Army and escaped from the Ukraine to England
- In England, he married Peggy Perfect, from Derby, England
- They moved to Ottawa and then later Victoria, BC
- In Ottawa Peter did work for the Ukrainian Embassy (or equivalent at the time) at some point.

This is all I know. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should best go about my research? Does anyone know of any Ukrainian websites where I could search for email addresses or phone numbers of potential Mulyk cousins (and other relatives) still in the Ukraine? Does anyone know how common of a last name Mulyk is in the Ukraine? I found some Mulyk's from Borynychi, Lviv, Ukraine listed on familysearch.org

Thank You,

Sal

I would like to sincerely apologize for using the words "deserted" and "escaped" in my original post. I should not have used those words since I did not know that to be a fact. I should have simply said that "Peter was from the Ukraine and moved to England during or after WW2". To anyone I may have offended or misled, please accept my most sincere apology.

Im also researching my grandfather Iwan Mulyk, born in 1920 in ukraine, I know he had 8 or more siblings, do you have a village that he was born in or parents names perhaps?

I recently found out that he was born in Borshchiv (Borschtschiw) in either 1920 or 1925. I know Borschiv isn't necessarily a Village. But that is all I know so far.

I knew Peter Mulyk quite well in Ottawa. What do you need to know?
