Seligenstadt, Germany, August 15, 1945. This is the card with which my paternal Grandmother, Tatjana, registered her intent to emigrate from postwar Germany. She sailed to New York three years later.
(Note that Tatjana recorded Lithuanian as her dominant language.)

Yu could have grown up with some guy from Kenya (ducks).
The likely alternative was Australia. Many Lithuanians settled there, including some of our relatives.
Really? I would have imagined it would be Canada.
Terms for immigration to Canada.
