[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Manos

[Mike McHenry]

Trieste is on the water. It's now part of Italy. Prior to WWI it was part of
the Austrian (Hapsburg Empire).

Wolen in East Prussia is not the same as Volhynia / Wolhynia which is 
the more common term of reference on this mailing list and the SGGEE 
website.  Volhynia was a province consisting of the northwestern 
region of modern Ukraine.

Note also that Austria is land locked so it would not be possible to 
sail from there.  However, I believe that there was a ship called the 
Trieste so it is possible that he sailed on that.
