The alternate name for the region is Lodomeria after the city of Volodymyr-Volynsky (Vo-Lodymer) that once was a political capital of the medieval Volhynian Principality. The ancient city of Halych first appears in history in 981 when taken over by Vladimir the Great of the Kievan Rus. Volhynia's early history coincides with that of the duchies or principalities of Halych and Volhynia. These two successor states of the Kievan Rus formed Halych-Volhynia between the 12th and the 14th centuries. After the disintegration of the Grand Duchy of Halych-Volhynia (also called Galich-Vla- dimir Rus) circa 1340, the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania divided up the region between them, Poland taking Western Volhynia and Lithuania Eastern Volhynia (1352-1366). After 1569 Volhynia formed a province of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. During this period Poles and Jews settled in the area. The Roman and Greek Catholic churches became established in the province, and many Orthodox churches joined the later, so as to benefit from a more attractive legal status. Records of the first agricultural colonies of Mennonites date from 1783. After the Third partition of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795 Volhynia be- came the Volhynian Governorate of the Russian Empire and covered an area of 71,852.7 square kilometers. This annexation changed greatly the religious make-up of the area, as the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church was forcibly liquidated by the Russian government, the ownership of all of its building being transferred to the Russian Orthodox Church. Many Roman Catholic Church buildings were also given to the Russian Church, and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lutsk was suppressed on orders of Empress Catherine II. In the year of 1897 its population amounted to 2,989,482 persons (41.7 per square kilome- ter) and consisted of 73.7 percent East Slavs (predominantly Ukrainians), 13.2 percent Jews, 6.2 percent Poles, and 5.7 percent Germans. Most of the German settlers had immi- grated from Congress, Poland. A small number of Czech settlers also had arrived. Alt- hough economically the area was developing rather quickly, upon the eve of the First World War, it was still the most rural province in Western Russia. [1] 3 DRAFT: 04 MAY 2020 Volhynia on a map of present day Ukraine [2] For centuries Volhynia had belonged to the Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was later ac- quired by Poland, through a marriage of royalty. In the first partition of Poland in 1772, the region was annexed by Russia. It stayed part of Russia until after World War I. The Treaty of Versailles in 1920 split Volhynia in half. The east remained part of Russia while the west was returned to Poland. After World War II, the entire region of Volhynia was made part of Ukraine, which in turn was part of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. There were Germans scattered throughout Volhynia, primarily in the Zhitomir and Ber- dichev regions. Mennonites attempted an early farming settlement there but did not stay long. The first major and more permanent migration of Germans into Volhynia did not occur until the mid-1830s. These were primarily of the Lutheran faith. By 1860, the Ger- man population was still only estimated to be 4-6000. After the 1863 rebellion in Poland, Germans began to flood into Volhynia. Most of them settled in a broad band extending from Wladimir Wolhynsk in the west to half way between Zhitomir and Kiev in the east. By 1900, census figures indicate there were approximately 200,000 Germans living there. In addition to Lutherans, many of these were now Baptist, Catholic, Mennonite, Moravian, and Reformed. Volhynia was annexed to Soviet Ukraine after the end of World War II. Most of the re- maining ethnic Polish population were expelled to Poland in 1945. Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Volhynia has been an integral part of the Ukraine. [1] 4 DRAFT: 04 MAY 2020 The earliest known information regarding the family of Gottlieb Schaedler has been found in the St. Petersburg Lutheran Evangelical Archives for the Roshischtsche Parish. These archives have been translated and published in the Odessa Digital Library German-Russian Genealogical Database. [4] Scanned images of the records can be viewed on the website of The Society for German Genealogy in Eastern Europe. [5] In these records, the family is listed as living in Olganowka, a small frontier village of German settlers in Volhynia. [6] This village was located just to the east of Rozyszcze, which is about 225 miles west- northwest of the city of Kiev and is now known as Ol'hanivka.

  • For the SGGEE Convention July 29
    For the SGGEE Convention July 29 - 31, 2016 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada 1 2 Background to the Geography It is the continent of Europe where many of our ancestors, particularly from 1840 onward originated. These ancestors boarded ships to make a perilous voyage to unknown lands far off across large oceans. Now, you may be wondering why one should know how the map of Europe evolved during the years 1773 to 2014. The first reason to study the manner in which maps changed is that many of our ancestors migrated from somewhere. Also, through time, the borders on the map of Europe including those containing the places where our ancestors once lived have experienced significant changes. In many cases, these changes as well as the history that led to them, may help to establish and even explain why our ancestors moved when they did. When we know these changes to the map, we are better able to determine what the sources of family information in that place of origin may be, where we may search for them, and even how far back we may reasonably expect to find them. A map of the travels of German people lets me illustrate why it has become necessary to acquaint yourself with the history and the changing borders of Eastern Europe. Genealogy in this large area becomes much more difficult without this knowledge.

This situation has made the search for a single Austro-Hungarian identity so difficult that many historians have declared it impossible. Yet the Dual Monarchy possessed one potentially unifying cultural aspect that has long been critically neglected: the extensive repertoire of marches and patriotic music performed by the military bands of the Imperial and Royal Austro- Hungarian Army. This Militärmusik actively blended idioms representing the various nationalist musics from around the empire in an attempt to reflect and even celebrate its multinational makeup.

  • The Horan Family Diaspora Since Leaving Ireland 191 Years Ago
    A Genealogical Report on the Descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock by A.L. McDevitt Introduction The purpose of this report is to identify the descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock While few Horans live in the original settlement locations, there are still many people from the surrounding areas of Caledon, and Simcoe County, Ontario who have Horan blood. Though heavily weigh toward information on the Albion Township Horans, (the descendants of William Horan and Honorah Shore), I'm including more on the other branches as information comes in. That is the descendants of the Horans that moved to Grey County, Ontario and from there to Michigan and Wisconsin and Montana. I also have some information on the Horans that moved to Western Canada. This report was done using Family Tree Maker 2012. The Genealogical sites I used the most were Ancestry.ca, Family Search.com and Automatic Genealogy. While gathering information for this report I became aware of the importance of getting this family's story written down while there were still people around who had a connection with the past. In the course of researching, I became aware of some differences in the original settlement stories. I am including these alternate versions of events in this report, though I may be personally skeptical of the validity of some of the facts presented. All families have myths. I feel the dates presented in the Land Petitions of Mary Minnock and the baptisms in the County Offaly, Ireland, Rahan Parish registers speak for themselves. Though not a professional Genealogist, I have the obligation to not mislead other researchers.

Smith that matches this description and has a different wife) There is a John Smith living next-door to John Thurston in Vernon, Oneida, New York and has one son living with him age 16+ (which would be a couple of years off from John). However, the proximity to the Thurston family makes it a good chance that this is John R. Smith's father. If that's the case, then John R. Smith's father is also a John Smith, who was 45+ in 1820 so would be born before 1775.

  • The Home Town As Mother
    Chapter 1 The Home Town as Mother Shmuel Yosef Czaczkes, later known as Agnon, was born on August 7, 1887 in the Jewish shtetl of Buczacz on the River Strypa, in the Tarnopol district of the province of Galicia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The town had been founded in the fourteenth century by Polish noblemen, and Jews began to live there in the late-fifteenth or early-sixteenth century. From the tenth to the fourteenth century, Galicia had been part of the principality of Volhynia, which had been conquered by the Kievan king Vladimir Sviatoslav- ich1 and called Vladimeria or Lodomeria. In the thirteenth century Galicia was conquered by the marauding Mongols; in the fourteenth century it became part of the kingdom of Poland. Over the centuries, Galicia became more or less synonymous with Lodomeria.2 Jews immigrated to the kingdom of Poland-Lithuania, including Galicia, from Germany and other parts of Central Europe from late medieval and Early Modern times. They lived among the Poles and Ukrainians, while forming their own distinct communities. Americans are used to cities and towns having a single name. This was not the case in multicultural Eastern Europe, where several ethnic groups and cultures shared the same town, and each had its own name for it. A case in point was the capital of the Austrian province of East Galicia. The German speakers and the Jews called it Lemberg, the Poles called it Lwów and the Ukrainians Lviv.3 Austrian Lemberg was an important center of Jewish culture, home to several Yiddish and Hebrew periodicals and the celebrated University of Lemberg.4 Two major Jewish figures in international law studied there: Hersch Lauterpacht,5 who coined the term “war crimes” and was a member of the United Nations International Law Commission and a judge of the International Court of Justice, and Raphael Lemkin,6 who coined the term “genocide” and pushed for the United Nations to adopt the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.7 1 Vladimir Sviatoslavich the Great (died 1015), medieval king of Kievan Rus.

  • Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500-1700
    Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500–1700 In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries Muscovy waged a costly struggle against the Crimean Khanate, the Ottoman Empire, and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth for control of the fertile steppe above the Black Sea. This was a region of great strategic and economic importance – arguably the pivot of Eurasia at the time. Yet, this crucial period in Russia’s history has, up until now, been neglected by historians. Brian L. Davies’s study provides an essential insight into the emergence of Russia as a great power. The long campaign took a great toll upon Russia’s population, economy, and institutions, and repeatedly frustrated or redefi ned Russian military and diplo- matic projects in the West. The struggle was every bit as important as Russia’s wars in northern and central Europe for driving the Russian state-building process, forcing military reform and shaping Russia’s visions of Empire. Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500–1700 examines the course of this struggle and explains how Russia’s ultimate prevalence resulted from new strategies of military colonization in addition to improvements in army command-and-control, logistics, and tactics.
