Poland had been taken over by Russia and from a political standpoint, ceased to exist. Poland had no borders because Poland had been eradicated. Their language and culture were being destroyed.<br /><br />My Mother's birth certificate (1915) lists the "birthplace" of her parents as "Russia Polish." They were ethnic Poles but their country was now "Russia."<br /><br />I'm sorry to say that my grandparents held strong animosity toward Russia and anyone or anything "Russian" and passed those sentiments on to their children because of what they and their families had suffered.

I have never heard that aspect of the border conversation, and it makes sense.<br /><br />It is something to consider, along with charitable and sensible immigration policies for those who are fleeing poverty, persecution, or who wish to raise their families in a safer environment.<br /><br />God bless all here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
