The colony of Krasna (Beresan Area) is a small daughter colony that was founded in 1870 on the road between Odessa and Nikolajew. Since the village was a daughter colony and therefore was founded relatively late, I have found it very difficult to find documents about the village or former inhabitants of the village. If you are interested in the village of Krasna please contact me at and I would be excited to exchange information with you. If I can find enough materialI plan to eventually create a similar homepage like the Kleinliebental Homepage for Krasna.
Please note that this is not the village Krasna in Bessarabia!
