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). ?

Travel to Ukraine

 

I am planning a trip to the Ukraine to visit my grandparents
homeland, specifically Khmelnytsky Oblast.

I have recently heard that only those with a visa can enter the
country and must be invited by a person living in the Ukraine. Is
this true?

I have heard the wonderful stories from group members who have
travelled to Ukraine and I welcome any information you can provide on
planning a trip to the Ukraine (best mode of transportation once
there, accommodations, host family?, etc.).

I will be travelling from Canada to France to meet my distant
cousins, then to the Ukraine.

Thank you for any information you can provide.

Best wishes,
Angie

Pechora, anyone?

Lloydeen Glowacki
 

Greetings from California....the state where we proved that the "American
Dream" is still alive and well yesterday when we recalled our Governor and
replaced him with Arnold Schwartzenegger!

You've all been very helpful with information about Kotlas, Siberia. My
husband, with his parents and sister, survived Pechora. (His sister says
they were at "Oblast Virkuts Pechora".) I've found Pechora on a map at the
AFO site, but so far I have been unable to find anything written about or by
others who were there. If anyone knows anything about this camp, I'd be very
grateful if you would share it with the group.

Thanks to all of you for telling your stories and giving us frighteningly
clear insight to a horrific period in history. Many of your families
suffered exactly the same specific traumas that my parents-in-law told me
about.

Does anyone know when the film "A Forgotten Odyssey" will be shown again in
the US?

Thank you for your help,
Terry Glowacki

My father was sent to work on German farms as well.
One of the farmers was brutal, the other treated his
forced labourers just like the rest of his family.

A local Nazi official showed up during dinner at the
second farm, and told the farmer his Polish workers
shouldn't be eating withe family.

The farmer told him to bugger off, that the Poles
worked with the family, so they ate with the family.

Krysia
 

Hi Stefan,
I have also requested information (regarding my father) to the MOD. My
cousin tried writing first for my dad's War Records but was refused. Had to
be next of kin. That was 25 anyway to myself as I recall... When I was
going through dad's paperwork I found that he already had a copy so I didn't
have to apply. Worth checking through any paperwork you may find I think.
They need the request in writing but if you give them a call they can tell
you more.
Good Luck,
Krysia

Hi Stefan,

I have written to MoD records Polish section already
and am waiting for a reply. I understand that there is
a fee for information unless the request is from NOK?
Is that right? Do you happen to know if they deal with
requests by email?
I have also contacted the Sikorski Institute although
I am not sure what extra detailed information I could
expect from them. I suspect it will be general history
rather than personal history. However, they may have
information on the Virtuti Military that I mentioned.
I think you are right about the Hoover Institution.
My mother noticed on the list a Jan Wierzbicki from
Tarnopol. My Grandfather was Jan Wierzbicki and he was
born in Tarnopol. Apparently my great Grandmother
lived in Tarnopol until she finally went to live with
my grandparents in Sambor before the War.
Perhaps you could advise me on the best method of
contacting the Hoover Institue and how best to request
the information from these people. It might seem a
funny request but understanding the process of how
they work and the retreival methods could speed the
whole process up and even help the Institute if it is
bombarded with requests.
Also where would I look for information on Poles who
were arrested and imprisoned by the German forces in
Warsaw? This is relevant to my Mother's first husband,
also a Pole.

Thank you for you help. I may have a better idea of
who to look at and what questions to ask when I have
drawn up a proper family tree with some proper details
on it.

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for accepting and welcoming me to the
group.
My father was Marian Wierzbicki, he was born in
Sambor, near Lvov,
the son of Jan Wierzbicki and Karolina nee
Kosziolko. I am piecing
together an outline of my father's family at the
moment and am
embarrassed to say that I know very little about
them. However, my
mother, who is in her mid seventies, is helping
where she can.

My father had many brothers and sisters including
a brother called
Franciszek but I don't know if he died during the
war (there were
quite a few brothers and sisters many of which
died in infancy). I
also had a cousin called Irena. I can not say
whether they were the
people mentioned below.
My father's father and mother, Jan and Karolina,
met in Vienna
before the 1st WW. They had lived in Galicia
which was part of the
Austro-Hungarian part of Poland. I believe the
family ended up in
Vienna as refugees during the war. Although the
wider familiy was
spread around Europe, Middle East and Egypt.
My father was arrested by the Russians in 1942?
for some form of
clandestine work involving partisan type work. As
such he was
classed as a criminal and sent to Siberia? This is
hear say evidence
as I have not found any documentation to support
this other than
stories from him and my mother. He became part of
the group who
moved across Russia to Persia and then trained in
the Free Polish
Army and fought through North Africa and Italy. At
some point he was
awarded the Vituti Militari. He also held a
Cassino cross since he
was part of the battle there. I am in the process
of trying to find
the citation and his military record. He never
disclosed what he was
awarded the VM for. Strangely enough he died in
1973 on the same day
in September that he was issued the award back in
1948.
that just about exhausts my current knowledge of
my father and his
family. I was quite young when he died and only
now started to
enquire about what he got up to during the war.
far too late to get
all the information I fear but at least it is a
start.

Thank you again for you help and I will tell more
of the story as it
unfurls.

Message from Dr. S. Stiftel

I received this reply from Dr. S. Stiftel. I told her about the
email problem and also recommended she obtain a copy of Sarner's book.
The email I am receiving messages from is: mlenet03@....

**

Dear Mr. Gary Jucha and Mr. Robert Ambros!
I have found indeed the essay of Mr. Sugerman. Thank you very much.
I think the gentlemen in the Kresy-Sibiria group may be not aware of
many Jewish soldiers who served in Anders army during all the war
through,. We do have in our archives documents of some of them and of
those who tried to join this army and were rejected by the army
authorities.
Still, I will be very grateful, if you will find any information on
the Jews in Anders Army, - to let me know about it.
Thank you for your kindness.

My Regards

Mrs. Dr. S. Stiftel (Shoshana means Rose in Hebrew. Originally I am
Roza).

Dear Kresy-Siberia group
For your further information, this book of Deportation of Lithuanians to

947.5 J7m
When I requested this in London, I was told that they could not bring this
film to London for some reason or another. However, maybe it could be
obtained in the USA?

Lesser of two evils!

Margaret Dubicki
 

My Polish friend, Wladyslaw Labedzki always tell this
tale: He had been taken from Poland and forced
laboured on a farm in Germany where, actually, he had
not a bad time (one of the fortunate ones)
Anyway he landed up in England after the war and there
he was given two choices: No. l "Did he want "to go
down the coal mines" or No. 2 "Go up to Scotland"
He did not even know where Scotland was!

Kotlas & Lithuania

Sheila GROSSNASS
 

Thankyou Stefan and another group member who provided the website
. This has given me some very
valuable information which I have been seeking for a long time.

Now I have some information for you which I hope will help the group. I
found out that there is a directory of deportations from Lithuania published
by Vilnius Vidaus Reikalu Ministeria 1993 (sorry I don't know how to
translate this) called: "1941-1952 Metu Lietuvos Tremtiniai"in which are
listed thousands of names of prisoners taken to Siberia. As many Poles fled
to Lithuania to escape the Nazis, some of these deportees may well be
Polish! The volume which I looked at says 'Pirma Knyga' which might mean
Volume 1! In that case there may be more volumes available. I saw this
book at the Bodleian Library in Oxford University, England. Thought it
might be of interest to the group.
Best wishes

JAIL...FOR THE STRUGGLE AGAINST CORUPTION...

JAIL...FOR THE STRUGGLE AGAINST CORUPTION...

During my short work in public administration in
?Polish Banana Republic", I tried to fight coruption -
actually fraud concerning state-owned real estates,
which were sold to prominent officials for very low
prices.
It was a controversial law on selling real estates to
?building cooperatives", But in some cases, even this
controversial law was broken!
One of those cooperatives called ?Debina" took the
land for bargain,totally against the law. ?Debina" was
created by prominent people from SLD - Polish
Democratic Left Aliance, including present Prime
Minister Leszek MILLER. (but I must tell that some
oficials known as ?right-wing" also were in it...)
We reported this to Public Prosecutor who pretended
to ?investigate" that case but finally decided that
?although it was not in accordance with law, but the
crime was not commited...". SO - 9 hectars of land
stolen...but without crime...
After some time I had to leave public
administration. However I didn't stop my struggle. One
of my actions was writing the text ?MILLER LIVES ON
STOLEN LAND" on the building of the Prime Minister's
Chancellary.
Now I have to serve 20 days sentence in prison for
my action...
I was ?invited" to jail for October 13. My friends and
supporters will lead me to prison at 1 pm, Gdansk, ul.
Nowe Ogrody 30.

Re: last name HERCUN

Dear Michelle!
?
I'll try to help you. When I'll be in the post office I'll ask for phone books. But there are two main problems:
? First:new? phone books include only company names, addresses etc. It is forbidden to show there any personal information (especially names, addresses, phone numbers)because of protection of personal data?act which obliges from about 10 years. And it is really hard to find old enough phone books which were issued before that act came into life.
? Second: Poland is divided into?16 districts(voivodships)?and every voivodship has its own phone book- it is not a big deal to check 16 books for the name you are looking for. As I said I must find books which were issued before that protection law came- and during that?period (till 1998) Poland was divided into 49 voivodships. It is just a little more books to skim;-)
?
If I find anything I'll let you know, but try to be patient. I live in Upper Silesia in Katowice(south Poland)?and first I'll check this voivodship for you.
?
Take care!

born in Stara Pawlofka near Aleksandria Poland.My grandfather Isidore
Garbalinski had a farm which was later seized by the Soviets.I would
like to hear from anyone who has family from the area and if anyone has
knowledge of the Garbalinski family. My mother was sent to Germany in
1943 for agricultural labor.

I see that we have a few individuals from Poland on our list. I was
wondering if they could see if there are any HERCUNS listed in phone
book and could send their addresses&#92;Thanks in advance for your help
