The Zvorygin Family

Roots in the old world, branches in the new.

A family story of faith, migration, and many small acts of love across generations.

Our story

The Zvorygin family traces its roots to Eastern Europe, with ancestors who lived for generations in villages shaped by faith, land, and community.

In the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, some of us began a new chapter in Canada, bringing with us language, stories, and a desire to build rooted lives in a new place.

Branches of the family

Over time, the Zvorygin family has grown into many branches. This site is a place to honour our elders, introduce younger generations, and share the paths we’re walking now.
