Witamy, Welcome Mark!
I hope that this group can offer you some assistance as we all try to piece together the details of what happened and why. Many of us have bits and pieces of the puzzle. I wish I had started this research when I lived in Canada, where there are more "Sybiracy" than in Australia, but the power of the internet is such that we have members from countries across the globe.
In any case, for a lot of material on this whole tragic episode, please visit the site www.AForgottenOdyssey.com and check out the links.

Dear Stefan, I came across your group from the Yahoo Polish chat group.
My interest is that my late father Edmund Terech was deported to Archangielsk along with both his parents. From there he joined the Polish army when it was being formed, serving in the 2nd Korpus, 5th Kresowa Dywizja Piechoty, 5 Kresowa Baon C.K.M. with whom he fought with at Monte Cassino. After Italy he settled in England.
My mother Krystina Kornecka was deported to Uralsk with her parents and her 2 brothers. When the Polish army was being formed her father joined the army and both her brothers joined the cadets My mother along with her mother and Grandmother were then sent to Africa (Camp Ifundi) afterwards settling in England were she met my father.
My Father in Law Ludwik Rudkowski along with his mother and 2 sisters were deported to Semipalatinsk (his father was a policeman in Poland and was arrested earlier) He also joined the Army and served in the Parachute Regiment.
This is just a brief outline I am in the process of recording there lives for my children to read. Hope your group might be of some help I will give details of the villages they were born etc.etc. in aa later e-mail

The best source of information about Kresy is the book "Z Kresow Wschodnich R.P. Na Wygnanie". It is a collection of memories and descriptions of settlements of 142 survivors of Kresy from almost as many Osady (settlements) on the Kresy. Unfortunately it is only in Polish. I was told once that it is being translated. The book (700 pages) was published by Ognisko Rodzin Osadnikow Kresowych in London, 1996.

Re: Information about Kresy & the Deportations
Thanks Ed, The good news is that I have this book in it's English translation as well as the Polish original. It is called "Stalin's Ethnic Cleansing in Eastern Poland - Tales of the Deported 1940-1946". It is indeed a valuable book. Marek Duchnowski, a recent member of our group, was responsible for putting the book on the web - and if you visit the site, I'm sure you will agree that it is a masterpiece!
Go to www.StalinsEthnicCleansing.com for more information on the English version and for information on how to order copies. (Marek, this may be a good time to get the publishers to accept credit cards and/or to accept US funds).
I should also say that I have built a little library of perhaps 15 books on this topic in the last year, and one which I found very informative is by Jan T. Gross (yes, the same one who later wrote about Jedwabne). it is called "Revolution from Abroad : The Soviet Conquest of Poland's Western Ukraine and Western Belorussia". He based his research on the Hoover Institution archive of testimonies left by the deportees who joined Anders Army (like Ed!). Here is the weblink to Amazon books to check it out:
Though it is out of print, they have a used book service where you can order it over the web for US$25 and up. I have taken the liberty of appending a review of the book, from the Amazon site. -- Stefan Wisniowski Moderator, Kresy-Siberia

Brilliant analysis of an ignored event of World War II, May 21, 2000 Reviewer: seydlitz89 from Portugal
The main primary source of this book is a collection of thousands of handwritten statements collected by the Polish government in exile when they interviewed the surviving Polish citizens released after the 1942 "amnesty" of those detained by the Soviets after 1939. By careful research, crosschecking and comparison with other resources Professor Gross has been able to produce a work of exceptional clarity and importance in understanding the workings of Stalinism in particular and totalitarianism in general.
He provides an outline of Soviet occupation policy and methods. The whole process seems to have been well planned out, one phase setting up the conditions to implement the second, which in turn set up the conditions for the third, all this operating within an artificial atmosphere of fear, chaos and confusion. An initial period of lawlessness, promoted by the Soviets in order for a rapid collapse of the old order accompanied by the promoting of ethic hatreds among the four main groups- Poles, Ukrainians, Belorussians and Jews, was followed by rapid consolidation of police powers by those who owed their new won power to Soviet authority alone. In the process of laying out this interesting story, Gross adds many interesting insights.
Discussion of social control, prisons and deportation, NKVD interrogation methods (including use of female interrogators) and much more provides a well rounded sketch of this particularly brutal episode of Polish history. I found his analysis of the "privatization of the public realm", "the spoiler state", "totalitarian language", and Soviet use of family networks to insure discipline and control illuminating.
Actually the only short coming of this very interesting book is that is was published in 1988 just before the end of the Soviet Union and thus produced without the use of the since partially-opened Soviet archives. He only has limited information on the Katyn massacres for instance. While this should not affect his conclusions or insights, it may give more accurate statistics than those quoted. Perhaps a new revised edition is called for. In the meantime, this book should be a welcome addition to any library on Polish history, Soviet history or the history of World War II.

My mum is from Czortkow and she's been "dying" pardon the phrase to get back and have a look at her childhood places. We are going on a visit next year. The plan is to take the train to Lwow and then go on to Czortkow, Biala, Kopyczynce Trebowla, etc. It should be a very interesting two weeks. I sincerely hope that my 35mm camera can take the strain as I intend to take as many photos as humanly possible. Hopefully I can also meet up with my relatives that couldn't get out of USSR in 1947 when the repatriation of Poles ended.

this is the cover of a quarterly magazine published here in London, unfortunately it's in Polish so not all can read it it covers all aspects of Kresy. I have old copies so if anyone wishes to read them let me know and I'll snail mail one to you.

Re: Odp: PO POLSKU First group poll closes 12 Oct
I would appreciate the assistance of a native Polish speaker to render a proper translation of Wladyslaw's response, and perhaps even mine (are you game, Ed?).
It sounds to me like Wladyslaw made a claim for compensation for the loss of his estate in Kresy to the Polish courts, but the Polish Government refused to comply with the court ruling for compensation in his favour. His case is now languishing at the European Court in Strasbourg.
If I have this right, can anybody confirm whether the government of Poland still has plans to try and enter the European Community by end of 2002?

Question for the group, Now that we are nearing 50 members, this is feeling like a bit of a critical mass. What should we do together to advance our cause?
Some similar groups adopt one or more special projects. Like a registry of names, a petition, a memorial fund or a museum.
I have a specific suggestion and would like to get your reactions please.
I suggest that we might start by collaborating on a website that would be especially useful for new members as they discover us and want to learn more about this tragic yet heroic event. Several members have their own sites already (Paul, Wladyslaw, Janusz, Chris, Janek, to name a few). These are all hotlinked through to AForgottenOdyssey.com site that Steve Roy helped me put together in record time to publicise Jagna Wright's fantastic film.
This site is "version 1". We can make it better with your feedback and input. For example, we should have a "gallery" of photographs. If we got organised, we would put together a list of FAQs (frequently asked questions) like on the better genealogy sites (eg, who did this to the Poles, why, who was taken, where, when, where can I get more info, was there ever compensation, what happened to Polish citizenship when the land was lost, etc.). Also we could have a list of resources for information (Hoover Institution, Polish Memorial Committee in Moscow, Karta archives, Sikorski Institute, Zwiazek Sybiraków, Polish Embassy in Teheran, etc.) as well as recommended books on the topic.
Though I am happy to be a point person to coordinate this type of activity, I can not do all of this alone, and "many hands make light work". Would anybody care to offer their help in putting some of these things together? The only qualification required is a desire to contribute and help others who share our quest. -- Stefan Wisniowski Moderator, Kresy-Siberia

Re: Odp: PO POLSKU First group poll closes 12 Oct
The translation is as follows You are living in a different world today the Polish Government is unwilling to return even to the Poles in spite of a Court Order their property The current president A Kwasniewski says that they have to send their grievances to the Courts, but how can it be done when the courts have passed a judgement The Polish premier writes "I can't comment on the exact date of execution of the Court Order" His case is being looked by a court in Strasbourg, France, and it's been there a few years The Polish premiers writings are published in www.us.wroc.pl/bio-rytm/main.htm And no one is surprised. No convention for the human rights is interested in this. Because RP isn't executing any court orders against RP. They think it's best to totally ignore it and let it believe it doesn't exist In Hitler and Stalin times everyone believed that it didn't exist but kept the diplomatic channels open This is how it is in Poland in 2001 This is as best as can manage to translate this, some words are incompatible with English and I have translated them as best as I know how Paul ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Wy zyjecie w innym SWIECIE !!!!!!!!

I certainly hope to do my part. Currently I am revising and expanding my website in a major way. I have a bit of a reference section at my new address:
I would also ask someone whose Polish is better than mine to perhaps make contact with the Committee for Aid to Turkmenistani Poles at who have a group similar to ours.
(I grew up speaking both languages. I have a BA in Polish Language & Literature from the University of Toronto and my translation skills from Polish to English are good--but my Polish writing skills are stunted by the fact I spent but 1 month in Poland thirty years ago.

Dear Stefan, I came across your group from the Yahoo Polish chat group.
My interest is that my late father Edmund Terech was deported to Archangielsk along with both his parents. From there he joined the Polish army when
it was being formed, serving in the 2nd Korpus, 5th Kresowa Dywizja Piechoty, 5 Kresowa Baon C.K.M. with whom he fought with at Monte Cassino. After
Italy he settled in England.
My mother Krystina Kornecka was deported to Uralsk with her parents and
her 2 brothers. When the Polish army was being formed her father joined the
army and both her brothers joined the cadets My mother along with her mother and Grandmother were then sent to Africa (Camp Ifundi) afterwards settling
in England were she met my father.
My Father in Law Ludwik Rudkowski along with his mother and 2 sisters
were deported to Semipalatinsk (his father was a policeman in Poland and was arrested earlier) He also joined the Army and served in the Parachute Regiment.
This is just a brief outline I am in the process of recording there
lives for my children to read. Hope your group might be of some help I will give
details of the villages they were born etc.etc. in aa later e-mail

The sample story in the site > is not in the original books of which there were 2 editions, 1996 of 700 p and 1998 of 450 p. Janina Stobnik's story does not appear in either.

Thanks Ed, The good news is that I have this book in it's English translation as well as the Polish original. It is called "Stalin's Ethnic Cleansing in Eastern Poland - Tales of the Deported 1940-1946". It is indeed a valuable book. Marek Duchnowski, a recent member of our group, was responsible for putting the book on the web - and if you visit the site, I'm sure you will agree that it is a masterpiece!
Go to www.StalinsEthnicCleansing.com for more information on the English version and for information on how to order copies. (Marek, this may be a good time to get the publishers to accept credit cards and/or to accept US funds).
I should also say that I have built a little library of perhaps 15 books on this topic in the last year, and one which I found very informative is by Jan T. Gross (yes, the same one who later wrote about Jedwabne). it is called "Revolution from Abroad : The Soviet Conquest of Poland's Western Ukraine and Western Belorussia". He based his research on the Hoover Institution archive of testimonies left by the deportees who joined Anders Army (like Ed!). Here is the weblink to Amazon books to check it out:
Though it is out of print, they have a used book service where you can order it over the web for US$25 and up. I have taken the liberty of appending a review of the book, from the Amazon site. -- Stefan Wisniowski Moderator, Kresy-Siberia
Brilliant analysis of an ignored event of World War II, May 21, 2000 Reviewer: seydlitz89 from Portugal
The main primary source of this book is a collection of thousands of handwritten statements collected by the Polish government in exile when they
interviewed the surviving Polish citizens released after the 1942 "amnesty" of
those detained by the Soviets after 1939. By careful research, crosschecking
and comparison with other resources Professor Gross has been able to produce a
work of exceptional clarity and importance in understanding the workings of
Stalinism in particular and totalitarianism in general.
He provides an outline of Soviet occupation policy and methods. The whole process seems to have been well planned out, one phase setting up the conditions to implement the second, which in turn set up the conditions for
the third, all this operating within an artificial atmosphere of fear, chaos
and confusion. An initial period of lawlessness, promoted by the Soviets in
order for a rapid collapse of the old order accompanied by the promoting of
ethic hatreds among the four main groups- Poles, Ukrainians,
Belorussians and
Jews, was followed by rapid consolidation of police powers by those who owed
their new won power to Soviet authority alone. In the process of laying out
this interesting story, Gross adds many interesting insights.
Discussion of social control, prisons and deportation, NKVD interrogation methods (including use of female interrogators) and much more provides a well
rounded sketch of this particularly brutal episode of Polish history. I found
his analysis of the "privatization of the public realm", "the spoiler state",
"totalitarian language", and Soviet use of family networks to insure discipline and control illuminating.
Actually the only short coming of this very interesting book is that is was
published in 1988 just before the end of the Soviet Union and thus produced
without the use of the since partially-opened Soviet archives. He only has
limited information on the Katyn massacres for instance. While this should not
affect his conclusions or insights, it may give more accurate statistics than
those quoted. Perhaps a new revised edition is called for. In the meantime,
this book should be a welcome addition to any library on Polish history, Soviet history or the history of World War II. From: "edtar" <edtar@...> Reply-To: Kresy-Siberia@... Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2001 21:01:44 -0400 To: <Kresy-Siberia@...> Subject: [Kresy-Siberia] Information about Kresy
The best source of information about Kresy is the book "Z Kresow Wschodnich
R.P. Na Wygnanie". It is a collection of memories and descriptions of settlements of 142 survivors of Kresy from almost as many Osady (settlements)
on the Kresy. Unfortunately it is only in Polish. I was told once that it is
being translated. The book (700 pages) was published by Ognisko Rodzin Osadnikow Kresowych in London, 1996. ISBN 1 872286 33 X, printed by Caldra

how they progressed and fared up to 1940- 48.

Dzien dobry:
My name is Joe Zelwietro (actually it's Z with a dot above it). I have been exploring my heritage and my father's life before he settled in Canada. I am using the Internet as a discovery tool because my father is dead. It was especially sad, because he died before Poland had regained her freedom in 1989, but I know he was not unique in that respect. My father was a good man, but he was reluctant to speak of the time between 1939 and 1942. He was one of the many who was taken prisoner by the Soviets from Wilno area and ended up a decorated soldier in the Polish 2nd Corps, but also a man without a country.
I want to go there and see where he is from and show my children where their grandfather came from. While there are many things I want to know I am joining this list with the hope that other members can help me with two specific questions.
Is there anybody who has knows a Zelwietro, Zelwietr, Zelwetra, or Zelwetro? (Remember that's Z with a dot)
Where is my father's village now? He was born in Bortkiewiecze powiat Oszmina woj. Wilno I know this area is in Lithuania now, but that's all I know.
If anybody can help I would be greatly indebted,
Dziekuje, Joe Zelwietro
