[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Leaving Volhynia

I have the same theory with my ancestors. They "disappeared" from Volhynia
from 1905 to 1908 (the year they left Europe) Much later in 1914 I found
another family branch exiting Europe declaring Pommern as their residence.

Are there any records or sources of research for these invitations from the
German government?

Thanks
