This information was very interesting. My husbands family came out of Volhynia
arriving in the U.S. May 30, 1911 with their infant son age 8 months old.
Walts sister told us that a group from their village came out together, they
went north and got on a little boat that took them to a big boat.  Yes they
had to sneak out as mother stated, she had to keep her baby quiet or they
would leave him behind. They could not risk a baby crying and get caught. Most
of mothers family cme out that way at different times and different ways,
between 1906 and 1914. One bother Henry Titschkowski and an Arndt had to sneak
out via Austria, thenmake their way to Hamburg to America.

Thank you
