Re: [www.Kresy-Siberia.org] British Auslander camps in Germany was (Re: From Wolyn to Austria)
开云体育Bernie, these are amazing photos, I have some similar but not many. I assisted Henryk Hill when joining KS, it is a small world. ? I never really asked mother about the train trip and she has a way of shutting out and only give partial description. Only the two daughters were taken in 1942 and mother was place with older Bohater (farmer) whose 16 year old son was taken for Hitler Youth.? She was given room, with a bed and single window, the size of a skinny bathroom and farmers’ recently dead, grandmothers’ clothes.? Her jobs were washing clothes, cooking, cleaning and loading sacks of potatoes, milking cows and general farm work. ? The farmer called her Ellie, German for Helena, taught her to ride a bicycle and carry milk pales on the handles after milking the cows. She was treated well at the farm, but being of Chmielewski blood, was always outspoken and it is a wonder she was not sent back.? The farmer attempted to kiss her one time and she punched him flat to the ground, he never said a word and did not touch her after this and warned the other blokes to stay away, in a sense, saying she was bad news. ? ? Another time she was out past curfew, broke the bedroom window to get inside, was caught and locked in a windowless room of the barn with only a horse blanket for warm and not given food or water for 2-3 days as punishment. ??But overall, she was lucky to be on a farm and was treated better by the Germans than she was under Soviets and was able to eat again, to the point where her 19 year old body was starting to develop normally as a 16 year old would have under good conditions. Her body stopped developing because of starvation and hardship. ? Her younger sister Zosia/Sophia was on another farm close by and treated much better. But after Capitulation, she decided to go back home, to what was now the Ukraine and had a very short life.? My mother’s last contact was with family in Niwna 1942 and then with her sister in Germany, 1946, before she went back home to mother in Niwna, with the Ukrainian train.? Her mother, my Grandmother Kamila died 1947. ? On Helena/Ellie farm called Styglund, Flensburg, they used French, Polish and other prisoners to do the hard farm labour, with my muscle proud mother, showing off to the blokes, working equally as hard and used as an example by the farmer, in the equivalent of “look here you blokes, this girl can load more sacks of potatoes onto the truck than you can. So stop being lazy and start working” with 'Ellie, come here and show these men how to load sacks of potatoes onto the truck’. ?She was not weak or feminine and complied, no one touched her otherwise she would beat them up. ? After Capitulation, the Allies did not have room for all the displaced people, so they left them on the farms, but the farmers did not want them anymore because they did not want to feed them, there was no food. ?Finally they British took them and kept the men and women in separate quarters. My Godmother Adela, who married Wladyslaw Balanda, was bunkmate with my mother and immigrated to Australia, while her family went to Canada.? People mingled, had boyfriend, girlfriend, got married or just had children. ? While in the British Camp of Eckeraforde, the Poles were short of food, so they slaughtered a German Farmers milk cow, were caught and the entire camp was move to the island with only one road in and out, so the British could control them more easily. ? Attachment photo my mother Helena Chmielewska at Styglund farm, Flensburg 1946 and my father Jozef Jarkiewicz on guard duty at Eckeraforde British Camp 1947. Kind regards, Lenarda, Australia ?

Lenarda,
She went to Flensburg? That is where Henryk Hil's mother Helena Bej was sent! She is on the wall of names. But in reading your account your family was treated much better. My dad's description of the train trip was more akin to the descriptions given by Jewish Holocost survivors. At their stops they were made to strip and undergo delousing He also noted that as the train went west that it got shorter. He believes that eastern Jews were being dropped off at death camps along the way but cant be certain. Its also possible that some cars were left at various stations along the way for waiting masters there. The name of the farm they were taken to was Alt Eifrade (If I got the spelling right) I did a google search for UNRRA archives and they do exist but it appears that these are mostly administrative documents and not actual refugee (DP) papers. I would think that they would have been recorded somehow with their immigration documents. Much of what I found is either at UN HQ in New York or at Columbia University however I did not do a thorough search. Here are some photos of my dad and his friends and his sisters at the UNRRA camps at Wendtdorf and Pinneburg. We owe the allies a great deal for the humanitarian work they did after the war. If they had just declared victory and left no one would have survived. Bernie |

Re: [www.Kresy-Siberia.org] Re: Kazakhstan Deportations
Hi, Peter! Main farm? of M.Gorky's kolhoz?was located in the village of Pawlowka, 16 kilometers east of the town of Alga. Its coordinates: 49.871240,57.542180. There really was bigger meal - squeezing of milk. It was closer to the train station (ALGA). There is a river Schulak. I looked a little information about the deportation of Poles in the Aktobe region. As of January 1, 1941? were?650 Kolhoz and covhoz, grain yield was horrendously low - about 0.35 tons per hectare (!!). Not surprisingly, there was a famine all over the place. But hunger is not killing people. Disease killed people - the entire area (270,000 square kilometers) had only one (!) Clinic, 21 bad Hospital (828 beds), 77 doctors, 107 nurses and 163 paramedics. In 2008, the village Pawlowka, based Orenburg Cossacks, renamed, its name is hard to pronounce, even me: Eset Batyr Kokiuly. The horror. Apparently, the Aktobe region will be the next one, which I will explore in the?Rommer list. Stan from M. ? From: petermuskus

Once there, ?After medical examination, my mother Helena Chmielewska was chosen for Styglund Farm, Flensburg and her sister was at another farm ?

Dear Barbara there is a reference to this village in Professor Piotrowski's book "Murder and Rescue in Wolyn" (which you can easily buy on Amazon - under the Kresy-Siberia bookshop). The book is divided into chapters by region and there is a chapter on Kostopol County. There is also a map of Kostopol county and it looks like your mother's village was roughly between the larger towns of Berezne and Ludwipol. The reference to your village is on page 50 in the account of Nychypir from Kamionka (From the account of Jan Baginski from Kamionka). The timeline here seems to be July. "News began to reach us regarding the murder of Polish people in surrounding villages. Groups of armed Banderowcy and Bulbowcy also marched or rode through our village at night. We lived in constant fear for our lives. We spent the nights in the fields or thickets away from our house. At times, our Ukrainian neighbours provided us with shelter, especially on rainy and cold nights. All around us Polish properties and villages went up in smoke. We waited anxiously for our turn. On July 23, 1943, a group of Banderowcy rode into our village and halted at the house of our Ukrainian neighbour. Our neighbour listened to what they had to say and then sent his children to us with the warning that we should flee immediately. We decided to flee to the town of Bystrzyce, located on the Slucz River, where a large German garrison was stationed. At one point during our flight my great-grandmother, Michalina Baginska, refused to go any further. She turned around and went back home. There, she was slain by the Banderowcy, who brought her to the Protestant cemetery in Kamionka and periced her with bayonets. My relatives, the Burawski family, remained in their home. The family consisted of several persons: Maria, Stefania, Zofia, Wladyslaw, Jadwiga, Stanislawa and Boleslaw. All of them were murdered with axes and knives. Their remains were left in the field. After a few days had passed, one of their Ukrainian neighbours buried them next to their home. Other Polish families - among them Fajfer, Miller, Sozanski, and Gdowski were warned and managed to escape to Kostopol. The Gdowski family were transported there by their Ukrainian neighbour, Nychypir. For this, he and his family paid with their lives. After killing him the Banderowcy led his wife, his daughter, his son-in-law, and his two small grandchildren to some shubrs near the house and there choked them with horse tethers... During our flight to Bystrzyce, I saw the outline of the former Polish village of Niemilia. It was completely burned down and only the chimneys and parts of some buildings remained standing. I heard from the people I met that there were only two wounded survivors from that village. The rest perished under axes and knives of the Banderowcy. Estimates as to the number of victims ranged from 150-200". Barbara - I don't know the details of your family. But from all the accounts I have read and interviews I have done, many of the Polish people who survived did so by seeking the protection of the German garrisons at the larger towns. Although the Germans largely turned a blind eye to the ethnic massacres and also encouraged the Ukrainians to take arms against the Poles, the extent of the carnage obviously alarmed the Germans to some extent. From the protection of the German garrisons, the Poles were then deported off to Germany for forced labour. As Austria was under German occupation, I am assuming that Poles were also sent there. When Germany was finally defeated by the allies there were hundreds of thousands of Poles in displacement camps in Germany. Halik Kochanski in her book "The eagle unbowed: Poland and the Poles in the 2nd World War" has a good account of the Wolyn massacres. We also have a section on in it in the new English Galleries Overview of KSVM, www.kresy-siberia.org/galleries. Is your mother and/or aunts still alive? If so, we would love to interview them for our Survivor Testimony project also on the virtual museum?
