I would like to know if anyone in the group knew my family,
either in Poland or in the Siberian camp.? They lived in Wolyn in a place
called Ulanska Dola.? I think it is near Dubno.? I remember them
also mentioning a town called Targowica. My father's name was Jozef, mother
was Rozalia.? My two brothers are Jozef and Jan.? My brother says
they were taken to Archangelsk.? He somewhat remembers being in
Settlement 52. My sister Jadwiga died in Siberia.? Hope to hear from
someone

My interest in joining the group is because
my parents, who lived in Eastern Poland, were deported to Siberia.
?They are now deceased, but my two older brothers, who were very
young at the time, are still alive. ?I know I also had a sister who
died in Siberia. ?My brothers were part of the group of children that
were sent to India. ?I'm very much interested in learning more about
the hardships my parents went through. ?I remember them talking about
it. ?I am very upset that very little has been publicized about this.
?We constantly hear about the Jewish Holocaust, but nothing about the
suffering the Poles endured under the Russians.
I was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1943 after my parents made the
journey from Siberia, through Persia (now Iran), then South Africa and
finally to Scotland. ?Both my mother and father were part of the
Polish army stationed in Falkirk, Scotland. ??My father's tours
of duty were in France and Belgium. ?We lived in Edinburgh till 1952
and then emigrated to America. ?We lived in New York till I decided
to move on. I now live in California (yes, I voted today in the recall
election for Governor). ?
