[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] volyania - siberia...1915-1916 trek

[NELSON ITTERMAN]

You are quite correct George, many german residents were moved from the areas of Volhynia during WW1, My father was in the Russian Army in the Crimea, but my grandfather and his family were sent to the Caspian Sea because they were considered a liability. I have Brent Mai's book, and would do lookups but do not have it with me. I'm spending the winter months in Osoyoos, its warmer then Redwater. My family went to Volhynia from Koenigsburg in the 1830's but were always treated as germans. Many people died during the journey.

This lists identifies the names of the heads of the families, including the patronymic names (father’s name), and the family names of people whose land was to be expropriated by the government.  The names originally appeared in the Volhyn’s Gubernia News (No. 56) on June 2, 1916. In the newspaper article, the name of the village where the land was located and the amount of land expropriated is also given. Many of these families were forceably moved to the interior of Russia in 1915-1916. Some returned at the end of World War I (1918). The names in the original newspaper article were translated by Brent Mai and may be available in book form from the "American Historical Society of Germans from Russia" (http://www.ahsgr.org/index.htm).
