Wolen in East Prussia is not the same as Volhynia / Wolhynia which is 
the more common term of reference on this mailing list and the SGGEE 
website.  Volhynia was a province consisting of the northwestern 
region of modern Ukraine.

Note also that Austria is land locked so it would not be possible to 
sail from there.  However, I believe that there was a ship called the 
Trieste so it is possible that he sailed on that.
