[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Volhynian village - Slabutkaj ?

[Gary Warner]

Dale,

There is not a public link to the St. Petersburg records that can be 
searched by film number, but we are in the process of developing an 
in-house version for the SGGEE database committee to check the St. 
Petersburg records for missing entries.  The database screen dump does not 
currently list the village, but we could add it if that would make it 
easier for members to find their people in the manner that Jerry 
suggests.  John and Rose and Jerry let me know privately if you think that 
would be of significant value.

There are also the original files that we got from Dale Wahl that can be 
sorted right now, but that process is a little tedious since there are 19 
files to look through individually.
