[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] adoptions (was: Red Cross in Germany)

[Richard Stein]

Rose,
The German Red Cross was very helpful 7 years ago when I inquired about my 
Brandt family who became refugees in Germany in 1945.  They had lived 
previously in Polish Volhynia and were resettled to the Warthegau in 1940. 
I wrote in English with all the information I had including the EWZ 
documents.

I wrote to
    Deutsches Rotes Kreuz
    Suchdienst
    Am Sandwerder 3
    D - 14109 Berlin
    Deutschland
and received a reply from
    Deutsches Rotes Kreuz
    Generalsekretariat, Suchdienst Muenchen
    Chiemgaustr. 109
    D - 81549 Muenchen
    Deutschland
