Buhr family fonds

  • CA MHCA Volume 2213
  • Fonds
  • 1875-1929, 1972-1973, [198-?], predominant 1875-1929

This fonds consists primarily of letters addressed to Jacob Buhr (1833-1908), Johann Buhr (1858-1942) and Jacob Buhr (1870-1951) received from close relatives in Russia. The earliest letters deal with questions of inheritance resulting from the death of Jacob Buhr's mother (who remained in Russia). Letters at the turn of the century give the reader a picture of conditions in the Mennonite colonies at that time. Letters from 1920-1929 addressed to Johann Buhr (1858-1942) and Jacob Buhr (1870-1951) deal with economic conditions in the Mennonite colonies in Russia after the Civil War and questions of emigration. Some letters from the 1970s are addressed to Helen Buhr from her father Jacob H. Buhr of Altona, Manitoba. Items of special interest include a list of wheat sales from 1883, a letter from P. & K. Friesen of Rosthern, Saskatchewan dated 1911 and a small family register kept by Johann Buhr (1858-1942).

  • 1922-1966

These records can be divided into three eras -- the first migration wave (1922-1930), Pre World War II and War years (1930-1946),and finally, the 2nd migration movement (1947-1964). The records during the first period focus on the Mennonites who left Russia and settled in various communities in Canada through the assistance of the Board. The records of the second period focus more on the need to send relief aid to Russia during a period when immigration to Canada is no longer possible. The records of this period also deal with the questions of war, military service, conscientious objection to war and alternative service. The records of the third period -- a period when the leadership of the Board is under chairman J.J. Thiessen -- focus on help to refugees out of war torn Europe, including re-settlement in South America.
