If born in 1888 as suggested by her gravestone, she would have been only 11 when her first son George was born). (NOTE 2: A family record prepared by Pauline BILLEY - MNELNYK KACHUK corroborates her year of birth as 1879 (she travelled at age 20 in 1899... see below: BILLEY, Dmetro & Anastasia (nee GORDEY). A family excerpt prepared by Pauline BILLEY - MELNYK KACHUK. The Dmetro Billey family originated from the cello of Borivsti, in the raion of Zastavna, in the oblast of Chernivsti in the territory of Bukovina, Ukraine. In 1899, Dmetro Billey (1874-1937), aged 25; his wife Anastasia Gordey (1879-1936), aged 20; and young son, George, six months, left their home for Hamburg, Germany to board a ship for Canada. Also on the same voyage were Anastasia's two brothers, Alexander, 19, and Andriy, 11; her mother and stepfather, Iftema and Ivan Bachur and their three children, twins Maria and Aneca, six years, and Wasylena, two years. On April 27, 1899, the S.S. Brazilia, a twin screw steamer with 1,398 passengers on board, sailed from Hamburg, Germany and arrived in Halifax, Canada on May 9, 1899. Upon arrival in Edmonton, Northwest Territories, Dmetro applied for ownership to 160 acres of homestead at NW 10-57-15-4 in the Whitford area. Nine years later on January 27, 1908, he received the title to this quarter section on which he lived for the remaining years of his life. In addition to their son, George (1898-1948) who married Mary Kucher, the children born in Canada included; Alexandra (born 1901) who married Dmetro Demchuk, Maria (1902-1954) who married Tom Presizniuk, Wasylena (born 1905) and married John Chernichan. Lucy (1907-1974) who married Wm. Karbashewski, Annie (1909-1966) who married Mike Melnyk, Nick (1911-1975) who married Rose Tkatchuk, Mike (born 1913) who married Mary Klem, William (1915-1971) who married Mary Shandro, Nancy (1917-1975) who married George Danyluk. The family consisted of ten children, four sons and six daughters, who attended the two-room schoolhouse at Shandro. The children married and settled on their own farms in the surrounding northeast area. The family has grown to include 55 grandchildren, 130 great-grandchildren, and 40 great-great-grandchildren; for a total of 235 descendants). Contributor: BradW1104 (48243477)
