[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] AGAD archive

[Richard Stein]

Carol,

I should add that SGGEE has a project to index the Rozyszcze and 
Wladimir-Wolynsk records available on microfilm and adding them to the 
original St. Petersburg Archive database (now called Volhynia-Kiev-Podolia 
database).  This work is about three quarters complete.  The result quoted 
earlier by Jerry Frank are from this database.
