Hello again and again!

What happened to the Poles left behind in the USSR after Ander's Army left (escaped?)?

Apparently from what I see on the records, my grandmother Anna, my grandaunt Maria, and my uncle Jozef all remained behind on a kolkhoz in north Tadzhikistan and apparently did not die at that time and possibly survived the war and their descendants might still be alive somewhere and if so I would definitely like to find them.

I know there were two more "amnesties" for deported Poles after the war.

One "amnesty" was in about 1948 when the Communists finally took over in Poland
when they were allowed to return to Poland and many returned then
and then there was another "amnesty" in about 1956 when Khrushchev denounced Stalin and many deported people were "rehabilitated" and more Poles returned to Poland but some others stayed and their descendants are still there to this day.

Both Anna and Maria were born in about 1896 and 1897 and so were quite close to the end of their child-bearing years by 1941 but it's possible either one might have remarried and had more children before 1945.

My uncle Jozef might have either stayed with his mother and aunt or possibly joined the Polish forces in the east and somehow survived the war and married and had children as well
although if he joined the Polish army in the east he might have died since they had quite high casualties too.

Where could I find more information to establish the fate of my grandmother, grandaunt, and uncle?

Thank you.
