[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] DAI, was EWZ

Sat Nov 14 10:19:57 PST 2009

I would like to confirm that we are talking about the same thing here.

When you say:

 This archival fonds (DAI) is partly online available for
> Bessarabia,
> Eastern-Volynia, Russia (Odessa !)
> but NOT for western/central Volynia !

What is the URL? Or, which collection on Odessa3.org?

Thanks again

Dave Obee
