[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] russian germans Schneider

[Jerry Frank]

I somehow missed this query the first time it was sent.

There was an Alexanderdorf in Volhynia, also known as Granidub.  It was 
located about 12 km south of Baraschow or about 20 km NE of the city of 
Nowograd Wolhynski.

However, you inquiry is generic in that you don't stipulate a region in 
Russia.  According to 
http://www.odessa3.org/collections/refs/link/villhelp.txt there were 
other Alexanderdorf in other parts of Russia.

If you know that the family was from Volhynia, then you can be sure this 
is the correct location.
