Up until attending school, I could only speak Mennonite Low German.
I am married and we have two sons.
Our parents and grandparents have spoken very little about the origin of Germans in Russia.
They only said that the Mennonites originally came from Holland to Prussia and then emigrated to Russia.
This is due to the tragic past of the Germans in Russia, especially from the 1917 Revolution, World Wars I and II, until at least the mid-1950s.
My generation has had a good life.
Dr. Barbara Studer Immenhauser, archivist at the Staatsarchiv Bern, shared informative facts before introducing Hans Hostettler who has retired from serving at the Archives for years.
