Thank you Hanai. I have had some success with writing to the village.
As for the Czar's army information, my Grandfather was not an officer. I have a picture of him in full uniform, but I couldn't find any websites to compare his uniform with. Do you have much background with the military from that period? Would you be willing to look at this picture and tell me if he is an officer?
They practised Russian Orthodox (when they were allowed to). Since most religions were banned during the communist time, it was difficult. But thank you for the note that Korop was also Jewish. I had some suspicions.
Should we come to visit in Kiev, would you be able to assist us in making arrangements such as translator, apartments, and other necessities?
Thank you again for your assistance.
