Description

Summary

The papers contain correspondence that dates from the 1950s to the 1970s, and concern emigre Cossack affairs as well as the career of Skrylov's son, Valerian. There are essays on the Kuban Cossacks, political events in 1964 and on the Cossack dictionary Skrylov was compiling. There is a photocopy of a 1948 cerificate Skrylov received from the "Soi︠u︡z pervago kubanskago pokhoda" in Munich. The cataloged photograph is of General Lavr Kornilov in 1916, shortly before his escape from a military hospital in Köszêg, Hungary, and there are photographs of both Skrylov and his son.
