BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA: A Personal Walk Back in Time

My mother was born in 1925 in a German settlement in Bosnia, which at the time was part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.

In 1930 her family emigrated to Canada.

She said many times how grateful she was that her father’s footsteps took her family to Canada, in reference to both WWII and the Baltic War in the 1990’s.

I decided to do some exploring while I was in Bosnia and my footsteps took us to NE Bosnia and a small village called Franzjosefsfeld.
