I'm Jew from Russian (Ashkenazi) origin. When I met "subbotniks" in Israel among with new immigrants from Russia it was a shock for me, because those people who look like Russians in villages and they completely different from other Russian Jews who mostly came from big cities and with high education. Very interesting point that "subbotniks" more religious people than most of Russian Jews. I really appreciate them, because they had suffered a lot because of their faith even more than my parents who were born as Jews in Russia.
What a wonderful site. My ansestors come from Shumyachi as well. So, I see that friendly people have been living there, and I feel quite sure it is possible to find the support of my research at that place.
Thank you again for the heart touching job.
