Hi everyone,
I just finished reading a very interesting article that was posted to the
Black Sea Germans website and thought I would share it here. I believe that
many of my relatives moved to Russian Poland from Pomerania but I don't
have any solid proof yet. This article is a treasure trove of information
and lists names of colonists who settled in Pommerania in the 1750s. I
didn't have much luck finding my names but hopefully there is someone on
this list that can!
It is such a great read and gives so much insight into their villages. I
love how some of the colonists have notes beside their names like "prone to
drunkeness" or "bad farmer".

(If the link doesn't work go to the Black Sea Germans site and find the
research section and click on "Before South Russia - --Poland" "Research"
"Resettlement" and find Colonists from Pomerania)
