    Notes:

    Surnames:
    Coming to a new country and not being able to speak the language can create huge difficulties. One of those difficulties is the correct spelling of names on official documents. I have gone through documents of marriage, baptism, homestead applications and death certificates. These are the surnames that appear for Alex Yacyshen on those documents as provided by Sharon Protz (Yacyshen):
    Yacyshyn (1902); Jacyszyn (1902); Yaceson (1905); Yacyshen (1908); and Yacyszyn (1916).
    The death certificate of Mike Yacyshen who died on or about the 15th day of October, 1913 at Oak River, Manitoba and that Alex Yacyshen will be responsible for Mike Yacyshen's debt and property. Signed by the Clerk of the Surrogate Court of the Judical District of Wynyard.
    Based on this information, I will use the surname of Yacyshen for all of Alex's children and then change the surname spelling based on obituaries or other information.
