      <dc:description>Photographs collected from hundreds of refugees and immigrants by Rev. Gerhard Lohrenz (1899-1986) and used for publication in the book entitled &amp;quot;Heritage Remembered&amp;quot; (first edition, December 1974; second edition, September 1977) are contained in this collection.  Lohrenz chose the collecting and publishing of this pictorial tour of the former Mennonite communities of Prussia and Russia as a Canadian Mennonite Centennial Project.  The photographs show various Mennonite settlements and portray Mennonite life  as they depict villages, mills, factories, homes, farms, churches, schools and much more.</dc:description>
