Christine Prokop, Edmonton & District Historical Society
In early 2019, a Norwegian gentlemen named Victor sent EDHS an email with two photos and his grandmother’s name. He wanted to know, did she come to Canada as a young women, as family lore claimed? If so, what was she doing here? Who did she come with? Join EDHS board member Christine Prokop as she tells how she tracked down answers at the Provincial Archives, in history books, on websites and in road trips to small towns. What did she find out?
