I would like to introduce Marek Duchnowski to the group. Please visit his
site. I have already put a link to it on "www.AForgottenOdyssey.com".
Perhaps you can put a link on your site to that one and to the mailing list,
Marek.
Regards,
Stefan

Dear Stefan

Dziekuje bardzo za witanie.

My background is that I am a second generation Pole brought up by Polish
parents in Manchester,UK. My father was a young boy who went through the
terrible ordeal of being removed forcibly from their home in Rowne in 1940.
He will not talk about his experiences because it is too painful for him.
His little sister Basia died on the trucks of starvation.

My connection with all of this began last year at a meeting of the
Association of the families of Borderland settlers annual meeting which my
father and myself attended.

What transpired at this meeting was that a book had been translated into
English by an ex English headmaster entitled "Stalins Ethnic Cleansing" so
that generations of Poles living abroad that could not speak English could
still find out about what had happened. Because of this book I know what he
went through and my children will also know. This is an extremely important
book for all the Polish generations.

Iwas so taken a back that I dedicated my time to develop the website
www.stalinsethniccleansing.com to promote the book and hopefully build links
with Poles like yourself all over the World.

I would be grateful if you could make people aware of the site and please
could you encourage anyone to forward their website details so we can create
some cross links and hopefully increase the traffic.

I am really looking forward to being part of the group and hopefully can
contribute

Czesc

Hi Marek
I have received your request to join the Kresy-Siberia group. That's great!

Can you please give me some brief info on your background and the nature of
your connection with all of this? I will send that info around to the list
as an introduction to you and join you up.
