Biographical history

Anne Yanchyshyn was born and raised in Meleb, Manitoba. After attending Normal School in Winnipeg, she taught in several rural schools in Silver, Gilbert Plains, Lyleton, and Whytewold Beach. She moved to St. Vital in 1959 and graduated from the University of Manitoba in 1968 with a BA degree in Geography, English, and Philosophy. Yanchyshyn taught in Varennes School for 24 years and after her early retirement she took Oral History workshops at the Provincial Archives. Using this training, Yanchyshyn edited the book MPC Flashbacks: a commemorative local history celebrating the 90th anniversary of the arrival of settlers in the Meleb-Park-Cumming School District Area. In this book, she documented the local history of the Ukrainian, Polish, as well as German and Jewish pioneers in the Interlake area. She traveled many miles to conduct interviews and recorded the oral histories on eight audiotapes which she donated to Archives & Special Collections, University of Manitoba in 2005.
