[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] From Germany straight to Volhynia

[Rose Ingram]

Thanks for this information Jerry.

The FHC I use was the beneficiary of 6 or 7 of the Wuerttemberg Emigration books by way of donation from the local Family History Society few years ago. I have yet to look through these books.

  The referenced book is an excellent resource for Volga and Black Sea 
  German research.  However, it does not contain a lot of help for 
  Volhynia in spite of the fact that Stumpp was in charge of German forces 
  in Volhynia during WW II.

  There are no migration records of people that went to Volhynia that I am 
  aware of EXCEPT that, sometimes, local church books in Wuerttemberg and 
  other places showed the names of people leaving their parish and where 
  they were going to.  These were not always accurate nor complete.  For 
  example, a record in the Nagold church book says my ancestor was going 
  to West Prussia when in fact they went to South Prussia.

  There is a series of 6 books containing Wuerttemberg Emigration 
  records.  You should be able to GOOGLE the term and find details.  They 
  are not specific to Volhynia of course and, as with the church books, 
  they are not complete.

  Many of the people from Wuerttemberg, Pomerania, and other locations 
  stopped for a generation or two in Russian Poland before moving on to 
  Volhynia.
