CREATION AND DISPERSAL OF AN ETHNIC MINORITY: THE VOLGA GERMAN EXPERIENCE

April 22 @ 6:00 pm

Monday, April 22 • 6:00 PM

The presentation. Alan Wambold relates how war, economic conditions and Russian government policy created an ethnic minority settlement on the Volga River in the late 18th century. More than 100 years later, similar forces would disperse the descendants of the original settlers to locations throughout the world—including Wisconsin.

The speaker. Wambold is a professional genealogist, researcher, and reference librarian at the Lester Public Library. He’s worked with historical and genealogical records for more than 30 years and has 15 years of experience managing special libraries.
