I am decended from the Michael Sommerfeld who died in Topcza in 1908.
Details on the original message are confusing for me, due to the language
difference. I am interested in more information on this family, including
maps that show where this town was located.

Thanks.

From what I have found, the first Sommerfeldt child of Michael SOMMERFELDT
to come to Canada was Adolph, the oldest. That is my great grandfather.
I ordered his immigration record and it seems to say that he came "to join uncle
M Peno" address "274 Patrick Street, Winnipeg".
So he was the first of the Sommerfeldt family to come to Canada, but the Penno
family (Michael I would guess) was already there.
