[Facts] Re: Awahtok (m) and Equrk (f)
in reply to a message by Anneza
hello
apparently Equrk called herself Euey (not sure that's how you spell it, but pronounced You-ee)
current speculation is that the names are eskimo from a now out-of-print book - so you're not far off! well done! but it's very out of the blue as most of my relations at that time couldn't read and were living in a small town in south of the UK. funny...
thanks for your help
