[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Where is Szenwald, Rypin?

[Joseph Pessarra]

Jewish ShtetlSeeker at http://www.jewishgen.org/Communities/LocTown.asp  has
4 Szynwald locations.

Szynwałd populated place 49°58' N 21°08' E  E M U G Poland  157.8 miles S of
Warszawa 52°15' N 21°0' E  
Szynwałd populated place 53°23' N 17°37' E  E M U G Poland  161.4 miles WNW
of Warszawa 52°15' N 21°0' E  
Szynwałd populated place 53°35' N 19°06' E  E M U G Poland  121.4 miles NW
of Warszawa 52°15' N 21°0' E  
Szynwałd populated place 53°46' N 18°01' E  E M U G Poland  162.2 miles NW
of Warszawa 52°15' N 21°0' E

And Rypin is at this location:
Rypin, Ripin populated place 53°04' N 19°27' E  E M U G Poland  86.0 miles
NW of Warszawa 52°15' N 21°0' E

Comparing the 4 Szynwald locations to the Rypin location, we get the
following:

Szynwałd populated place 49°58' N 21°08' E  E M U G Poland  225.9 miles SSE
of 53°04' N 19°27' E  
Szynwałd populated place 53°23' N 17°37' E  E M U G Poland  78.9 miles WNW
of 53°04' N 19°27' E  
Szynwałd populated place 53°35' N 19°06' E  E M U G Poland  38.5 miles NNW
of 53°04' N 19°27' E  
Szynwałd populated place 53°46' N 18°01' E  E M U G Poland  76.3 miles NW of
53°04' N 19°27' E

It appears that the 3rd Szynwald location is the closest to Rypin.  If you
go to ShtetlSeeker, you can get the corresponding map for the locations.

Subject: [Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Where is Szenwald, Rypin?

 
The village of Szenwald or Szynwald appears fairly frequently in the
Michalki, Rypin parish records.  However, I have been unable to find it on
any map including our usual on-line maps.  If it exists in the Michalki
parish it should be about 30 miles NNW of Plock, in the Rypin area.  Does
anyone know where this village could be.  

Thanks,
Earl Schultz
