Lol... good old auto correct!

Well he did die in 1937 so you're right there but more to the point (and I will prove read this bit!)... Who is he?
There did it, the smart phone wasn't being very smart last night! :smiling5:

So was he killed in Soviet Russia as part of the great purge or was he killed somewhere else? Was he Russian or another nationality? It’s such a high topic that I can’t find a handle to it without assistance.....

I suspect that with “Soviet but not in Russia”, Lee means he’s from someplace like the Byelorussian SSR or Ukrainian SSR — or even the Bavarian Soviet Republic for all I know.

I've gone to Estonia and found Jaan Anvelt-first Premier of Soviet Estonia.

Jon steps in out if the blue and gets the correct answer!

Jaan Anvelt, was a Soviet revolutionary, leader of the Communist Party of Estonia, the first Premier of Soviet Estonia, and the Chairman of the Council of The Commune of the Working People of Estonia. Imprisoned during Joseph Stalin's Great Purge in 1937, he died from the injuries sustained during a beating by Aleksandr Langfang while in NKVD custody.

Jon, it's over to you
