Hello,
I would like so much to find out if I might have cousins still in The Ukraine or in Ossetia. My father was born in Wilno, Poland which is now Vilnius, Lithuania. His father was Konstanty, a judge, who was married to Valeria Duszewska of Lithuania. My grandfather's family was originally from Ossetia where they owned a mountain pass. Apparently, they were a wealthy powerful family which was banned to The Ukraine by the Tzar. My great uncle was Surgeon General of the Russian Army. I am not sure if the name is spelled Dudarev or Dudarov because my father spelled it the Polish way, Dudarew. He was born with the title of prince, but renounced it when he became a citizen of the United States. My father was known in the United States as Dudarew-Ossetynski. Leonidas was born in 1910 and died in 1989. My great grandfather was Platon. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you.
