My grandfather was conscripted into the Russian Army somewhere around 1900 - 1904. His name was Michael Goldsmith. To whom do I contact to find his military record. How do I contact the Russian Government? Can I contact them in English or does it have to be in Russian? Any help would be appreciated. Karen Goldsmith Adelman karengadelman@...
I have the same issue except the Russian Army conscription was in Poland about 1845-50. Do records for this period exist and can we access them? How? The surname was probably FRIEDMAN (Polish: FRIDMAN) or NATAN (Polish version of NATHAN). Stephanie Nordlinger Los Angeles CA
