My family has a story of a family of eight brothers, one new-born daughter, a mother and father. The Bolsheviks were caught attempting a false flag attack. The German army came in to help but ended up running all the families out of the country. Running on foot, the army was in pursuit, and the mother dropped the baby daughter. The army was so close they couldn't turn around and pick her up and she was left behind. The family immigrated to Manitoba, Canada.
