Administrative/Biographical History
Heinrich Peter (2 Sep 1905 – 3 Jan 1992) was born in Zagradovka,
South Russia and moved as a child to Orlovo, Barnaul, Siberia where
he met his wife, Maria (nee Nickel, 7 Feb 1907, Mazayevka near Ignatievko
Colony-23 Feb 1984). They immigrated to Canada in 1926, first settling
in Herbert, Saskatchewan, but moving around many Alberta locations (Hudson
By Junction, Coaldale, Gem, etc.), and dying in Leduc, Alberta. Heinrich
was choir director (Dirigent) for the Orlovo Mennonite Church at the
time when music was passed around and each individual made their own
copy of it for use in the choir.
