| 520 | 3 | |a The Russian Brotherhood Organization was founded in 1900 to aid Russian immigrants in the United States. Organization members contributed to a common fund which they could draw upon during emergencies such as workplace injuries and deaths due to illness or old age. The first lodges of the Russian Brotherhood Organization were concentrated in the anthracite coal mining regions of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The records of the Russian Brotherhood Organization consist primarily of death claims which contain detailed information about individual immigrants. Data from these claims are currently being entered into a machine-readable database to allow individual name searches. Also present are the organization's administrative records, financial records, and numerous publications printed at the organization's print shop in Philadelphia. In addition, this collection contains over sixty bound volumes of the Brotherhood's newspaper, Pravda. In Russian and English. | |
