Hi!
I just found this site, and have a question ...
My Grandparents lived in Poland before WWII; my grandfather's family were land owners, and had a huge estate in present-day Ukraine, near the Polish/Ukraine border. However, during the Russian invasion, my grandfather's family was sent to Siberia, and the land taken away. After WWII, my grandparents made the choice to leave Europe, and never tried to get the lands back.
My family now lives in Canada, and I've never been to Poland before. However, a while ago I was talking to my dad on the phone, and we were discussing trying to get the family lands back. Do people try this often? Is it often very successful?
Any information would be helpful!
