== '''Village Coordinators''' == | |||
These are individuals who coordinate the gathering of information and compiling of databases about the inhabitants of specific Germanic villages in Russia. You are encouraged to share your family information with the village coordinator for the village where your ancestor lived. You may also benefit from information already submitted by others. The most up-to-date list of village coordinators, especially for Volga Germans, is found on the American Historical Society of Germans from Russia (AGSGR) Internet site described previously. The Germans from Russia Heritage Society (Bismark) has the best list of village coordinators for the Ukraine. | |||
