A new term for you all.

Kolchozy - Russian collective farms.

See Odyssey Outline page - when Jurek and Leon get to Tashkent.

When you talk to your folks about their recollections - often things get repeated - repeated a lot - but every once in a while they will throw something at you which is novel.

"Kolchozy" was thrown my way this week.

Specposiolki name of the deportee camps ( Special Posioleks - Special Settlements )

Found the map of Specposiolki in Archangel. Section on the Odyssey Outline page. SUBSTANTIALLY UPDATED.

Marczaks were in spekposiolek number 130-Bierdyszycha and Lipowicz in number 38 Ostowskij.
