About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

One of the first nine villages in the new Mennonite colony of the Molotschna, Lichtenau was founded in 1804. The initial settlers were Flemish Mennonites who moved there from West Prussia. A few buildings from the Mennonite era still remain in Lichtenau, now known by the Ukranian name of Svitledolyns'ke. The Mennonites left in 1943 after the German Army retreated. Those who were not shot or banished to Siberia made it to Canada, South America and Germany. The church building, now a machine shop, still has bullet holes in the walls from where the Soviets lined up Mennonites and shot them against it's walls.
