Hi, John!
I watched with interest your paper (your father).
I sent you privat.
Your father was in PechorLag or SevPechLag - built railway from station Kozhva to Vorkuta.
It was the worst camp of all?Komi - Gulag camps.
It?killed?most people.
Similar camp (just south) was SevZhelDorLag - Poles built?road from Kotlas to Kozhva (Elzuna's father etc.).
Vilage Abez - center of SevPechLag, now called?Pechora town?- easy to find on the map.
Unfortunately, nearly complete lists of prisoners (1940-41.) In Komi exist only for UhtiZhemLag.
SevPechLag - no?on? lists.
Processed only 10-15% of registration cards for other Komi?4 camps:
1) VorkutaLag
2) UstVymLag
3) SevZelDorLag
4) SevPechLag

At this moment, the Interior Ministry archives are closed - there were not even allowed researchers.
On all calls (including me) answer - NO! nothing!
Archivists from?Interior Ministry - a worthy continuer of Lenin and Stalin. They just doing a secret order from Moscow.
When this criminal order canceled - I do not know. Can never be.
I'm here for 3 months can not find out about my grandfather (ever since I learned that he was in the Komi Republic). I writing?letters - no response!
Here are, John, deals in Russia.
But we have become accustomed. It's all belching communism. But the contagion is very tenacious.
We will wait for policy changes in RF.

This is amazing, Stan.
Can you see if you can find the names of my father and uncle, too?
My father: Jan Ha?ucha, son of Jakub, born 11.IV.1915 at M?odów (Lubaczów), Poland
My uncle: Jakub?Ha?ucha, son of Jakub, born 14.VIII.1919 at M?odów (Lubaczów), Poland
In Russian, my uncle's name (and probably my father's) was written Galux or Galuch. You can see the actual Russian writing on my uncle's release certificate posted at?
Thank you again, Stan.
