[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Migration through England

[Jerry Frank]

Brandt,

For a description of the migration of our ancestors across England from Hull to Liverpool, see http://www.norwayheritage.com/articles/templates/voyages.asp?articleid=28&zoneid=6 

Now, stepping backwards, most migration to Canada started with a ticket from Hamburg, Germany.  Migration to Hamburg was typical by two routes.  One by horse and wagon and/or train from Volhynia via Warsaw to Hamburg.  The other by horse and wagon and train from Volhynia to Libau and then by boat to Hamburg.

Ulanowka is a known Germanic village in Volhynia and our maps should help you to identify it.
