Carol, if you feel so strong about your past then sell up and come home.
You seem to have a big chip on your shoulder and you should lay this past to rest and get over it and start living a modern Poland as most Poles are.
What good can come from going over old hurt making yourself feel bad all the time?
As I said my wife's family have more then their average share of crap in the second world war and through the communist times, but what do they do, they pick themselves up, dust themselves down and get on with life and try again, and will keep on trying as the Polish spirit has proofed throughout history.
Respect to you carol, but you really should move on :O)
If they were arrested most of them wouldn't have the opportunity of being "deported".
And no Polish people were deported to the USA, they fled to the USA, because the other choice as you said would be arrest.

Escape? These people didn’t escape – they were arrested and deported
