BORDERLAND LIBRARY SKILLS WITH GENEALOGY
BORDERLAND LIBRARY SKILLS WITH GENEALOGY

"Resource Library "Borderlands" was created out of the need of the moment and is a complete undertaking amateur. It is not competition for dynamically developing companies digital libraries, but only a modest addition to these items that will become "giants" in the near future they will not deal with it, either due to the subject matter or difficulties in getting there to the originals. The idea is to share interesting items about history of the Borderlands, which browsing through may help in discovering erased traces of our ancestors.

Thanks initiative and help of genealogists managing the portal Genealodzy.pl, the collected material is available on the server Polish Genealogical Society .

The first microfilm contains a registry book with 12390 names of Jews from Brest, Belarus. Recorded were name, first name, first names of the parents, and the year of birth, as well as dates of issuance between November 1941 and September 1942. Furthermore the films contain protocols regarding the issuing of passports to the Jews of Brest, in which name and first name, date and place of birth, a photo, a fingerprint, and the applicant´s occupation were recorded. The names, year and place of birth of children younger than 13 years were recorded in the protocols of their mother or father as well. Children of 14 years onwards had a protocol of their own. The photos of some persons show parts of a stamp with Cyrillic letters. Obviously, they were taken from Soviet passports, of which the number and issuing date were recorded in the protocol as well. Amongst the protocols correspondence regarding the issuing of passports as well as original passports of “Reichskommissariat Ukraine, Stadt Brest Litowsk” are to be found. The last microfilm ends with a book of 591 “special identity cards which have not been taken”. These would have allowed their owners to leave the Jewish quarter of Brest to go their work places.

Documents of civilian workers from Belarus: The majority of microfilms contain questionnaires concerning their work in Germany filled in by repatriated persons. The other microfilms contain a variety of documents related to their work in Germany. There are identification cards for civilian workers, identification cards for transportation to Germany; bilingual documents registering the health conditions of the civilian workers, trilingual documents which consist of an abbreviated CV, typed transport lists, which sometimes feature the remark “frw.” meaning voluntary and mention the number of guards accompanying the transport, printed forms for transport lists featuring a remark about the ability to speak German, registry books containing lists of workers to be transported to Germany, and documents of persons who were to be sent back from Germany. Additionally, there is documentation which seems to be indirectly related to the documentation on the civilian workers from Belarus. There are Russian lists, Soviet identification cards and passport issued by the Belarusian SSR, Polish identification cards, bilingual identification cards issued by German authorities, bilingual documents issued by local authorities, registration cards, release documentation for Prisoners Of War, warrant cards of the “Belarusian Constabulary”, cards, which prove the delivery of agricultural products, requests by German employers in Belarus not to send their staff to Germany, citations to the job agency, documents that forcefully send persons to Germany, translations of letters by Belarusian youth who tell about the good life they are having in Germany, lists of the school for leadership of the “Weißruthenisches Jugendwerk (WJW)”, i.e. Belarusian Youth Office, lists about the assignments of female leaders of WJW in Germany and short appraisals of their performance. Furthermore, there are transport lists of Dutch and Flemish boys to Schwerin, Germany and lists of German youth of both sexes including their Hitler Youth member numbers on the microfilms.

Belarusian Emigration Collections
Belarusian Emigration Collections

Our multimedia publication presents 12 collections of objects of material heritage of emigrants, which are kept in the collections of BINiM, the Belarusian Library named after F. Skaryna, as well as in Belarusian funds in the Library and Archives of Canada in Ottawa. Most of these collections are not systematized and have not been specifically studied.

What is presented in "Belarusian Emigration Collections" is far from exhaustive. Over time and in a different form, the database will be updated and improved. The same option aims at the primary representation of the rich and diverse material heritage of emigration.
