During the Civil War 1919-1922 in Russia our family missed Nikolay Nikolaevitch Bryukhno and Georgy Nikolaevich Bryukhno. They were officers of White Army, army of Russian Tsar Nikolay II. Unfortunately now we have a few information about them.

During the soviet time in Russia no one in our family told about Georgy and Nikolay. All their photos were destroyed because all the family can be arrested or even killed if it became known about relatives served White Army. Our family could retained only the one photo of mother Bryukhno Anastasia Yakovlevna with very little Georgy and Nikolay.

We hope they stayed alive during the war and very likely immigrated. We very hope to find issues of Georgy Brukhno and Nikolay Brukhno.

Our last name may be transliterated into European languages in many ways. Most common are Bryukhno, Briukhno, Brukhno, Brioukhno, Briouhno, Bryukhno, Bruchno, Bruhno. Now we use English spelling Bryukhno as the mostly close to sounding the name in Russian.

Please contact me if you have any information about Georgy and Nikolay Bryukhno.
