Genealogy / Are Silesians people German/Germanic? [178]

My mother was born in Grunewald, Silesia in 1924. She always said she was German and born in Silesia, the whole thing is confusing! She and her family were among those expelled from there in 1945. She was first in a Russian Compound, and then escaped with help and made her way by walking to Weinheim, Germany where she met my Father, and American Soldier.
