in Eastern Europe. This web site is devoted to the study of
those people with German ancestry (generally of the Lutheran,
Baptist, or Moravian faiths) who lived in present-day Poland and
northwestern Ukraine. Special emphasis is placed on those who
lived in the pre-WW I province of Volhynia (generally from the
city of Kiev on the east to the present-day Polish border on the
west) and on the pre-WW I region of central and eastern modern
Poland known as Russian Poland or Congress Poland. Peripheral
studies include the Kiev and Podolia provinces in Ukraine, and
the regions of West and East Prussia, Posen, Silesia, and
Pomerania as well as Galicia which was under Austrian rule.
