Subject: Re: Kresy-Siberia Group


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). ?

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
