There is a good Wikipedia article on the history of Ukraine, and it's settlement, that is pretty accurate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainians

You have a rich culture, and you should locate some older Ukrainians that can discuss the history of your heritage.

It is interesting to note that although men have always been the figureheads of Ukraine, the women have always been the backbone of it's survival.

Do some research. email me if you want some specific places or information.
