Bryan;I know that Zull is a German name and have seen some IGI listings for that surname from Germany. And also occasionally in the published German records for Lancaster, Berks, Schuylkill Counties in PA I will run across a listing for a Zull. In Illinois a man named Andrew Zull fought in the Civil War. My son is named Andrew so there have been at least two Zulls with that name.
My husband's family though is descended from a man named Theodore Zull who came over from the Ukraine at the beginning of this century and the family knows nothing about his background. I could not even find him on the passenger lists that are up for the Ellis Island site.
It seems to me you would have better luck looking up records in Germany than anywhere in a country that was subsumed by the USSR. Pamela
