Ethnic Germans went to Ukraine for two major reasons: For economic opportunities and for the chance to practice their chosen religions. The Lutherans, Baptists and Mennonites who migrated east often followed different paths, but there are common factors in their history as well. This session reviews some of the most important sources that apply to all, as well as sources that are specific to each denomination.

I was amazed at how much information Dave was able to compile for this webinar on Germans from Ukraine.
very informative
I know it can't be easy to research records in places like Poland, Ukraine, and Germany, but Dave Obee does a great job of presenting this information to the genealogy community. I enjoyed this immensely.
Dave is a very interesting and informative speaker
