I am looking for the special archive in Warszawa with documents about the repatriants returning >from the USSR and wonder where exactly this archive is located (My original message January 25th) Peter Jaseem kindly directed me to the Jewish Historical Institute (Zydowski Instytut Historyczny) in Warsaw. This is NOT the archive I am looking for. I am looking for a general Polish archive for ALL repatriants - Jewish and Christian Poles. Any good suggestions?
Dear Eva,
I am sorry for the misunderstanding. The records you are looking for are called "akta PUR" or "akta Panstwowego Urzedu Repatriacyjnego" (records of Panstwowy Urzad Repatriacyjny - /State Repatriation Authority/) and are most likely deposited at the Archiwum Akt Nowych, ul. Hankiewicza 1, Warsaw, Poland. Peter
