Ukraine 1933 (District of Zhytomyr)
Grandfather’s family. Beautiful young woman is my great-grandma.
During the WW2 they left their new house and migrated to the north. They came back in 1945, life never went back to normal and big house no longer existed instead they lived in a small apartment. From 1945 until 1995 for 50 years my family lived in that part of Ukraine.
