[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Volhynia in Washington Post

[John L Bettger]

Such stories are more common than realized. My wife's Jewish grandmother in 
Austria married my wife's grandfather, a Christian. She survived the war, 
with out anyone ever turning her in. My grandmother was also Jewish, married 
to a Christian, but lived in Odessa where there was a huge Jewish population 
(about 1/4 of the city). My grandparents came to America long before the 
soviet Jewish pograms.

Hello all: An article in this weekend's Washington Post Magazine tells the 
story of a Jewish girl in Volhynia who adopted the identity of an ethnic 
German child and survived the war as a translator. The URL is:
