Not in OCLC. ~CCC~ [1.5P] Around the turn of the century, two families - the Stefans and Fuhros - were neighbors in the 'Old Country,' in the village of Remetea Mica, Transylvania, which was then part of Hungary. This is the story of how these families were united in a new land and across a vast ocean, in rural Saskatchewan in the 1920s, helping to settle and develop this area. Descendants from this union are scattered across Canada, and beyond, in many walks of life.
