Description
Summary:The author of the paper is a Russian historian-amateur. His text has a form of an essay and is dealing with the history of the Polers in Far East, concentrating on the territory of South Sakhalin. The author reaches out to the most ancient available data which estimate the number of Poles in the Island of Sakhalin in 1897 at 1636. The author depicts the profiles of many Poles and Sakhalin families who had made their presence there during almost one hundred years. The author conducts his observations until the modern times. He also shows the history of the Catholic churches and priests from the territory of Sakhalin. The final part of the paper is devoted to the discussion on the author's results of his searches conducted in the territory of Poland. They deal with the fate of some Sakhalin Poles, those who due to World War Two found themselves in Poland in the postwar period.
