As the Allies conquered Germany and entered the Nazi concentration camps beginning in the spring of 1945,
they found detailed records that had been kept by the Nazis. The documents were taken to the German town
of Bad Arolsen, where they were sorted, filed and locked way. In 1955, the International Tracing Service (ITS),
an arm of the International Committee of the Red Cross, was put in charge of the archives.

These records are now available to family at no cost. These will provide you w/lots of personal detail re both Grandparents, including copies of marriage certificate, exact place of birth, etc. What is especially interesting is their experience in Germany. You can e-mail your inquiry request. Make your inquiry for 2 people, Grandmother and Grandfather. Submit ther full names, including any variants and exact birth dates. Make sure to include your snail mail address and your address. Turnaround time is up to three months.

Following is another link which is an exc resource for information. Grandparents came immigrated in appx 1950.

Near the end of 1947, a US emigration bill required every DP emigrant to have a sponsor in the US. When not enough
sponsors were found, in June 25, 1948, Congress passed Public Law 774, the Displaced Persons Act which provided
for more than 200,000 DPs to enter the US over the next two years. 85,000 were Ukrainians.
