Part V – Documents from the life of the Bukovina Székely Hungarians 1945–1948. This group of people was relocated from Bukovina to Bácska/Bačka (in Serbia’s Voivodina region) in 1941. In 1944 and ’45 the Bukovinians had to flee from Bačka to Hungary. Eventually they were allowed to settle in homes vacated by Swabian Hungarians that were deported to Germany or had been sent to do forced labour in the Soviet Union in the aftermath of WWII. Four personal accounts are printed here illustrating the difficult and tragic situations created when Swabian Hungarians had to leave their homes suddenly and Bukovina Hungarian families moved into them.
