[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Schmidt location?

If that's a translation from "nee",  the French word meaning "Born  as",
that would be her maiden name..

All,
My wife's 2nd great grandmother, Dorothea __?__ was married  to Michael
Strefling when she died 
in Volhynia. The Volhynia 1860's  Death file has an entry for her like this:

Last, First Name    D/M   Year Place
Parents/Spouse
Strefling,  Dorothea                     26 Jun 1867 Shitomir
husband  Michael

Film/It   Pge  Reg Remarks
1884090/2  536   62 born Schmidt  44 yr

Looking at other entries in  the file, the "born Schmidt" would mean that 
she
was born in a
place  named "Schmidt" in 1823. So where would that be? There is no place by
that  name in the 
Volhynia Gazetteer - does anyone have any idea where it might  be referring
to?

Also, the place of death: most of the places seem  to refer to a parish name
and yet there are
other places seem to refer  to actual places???

Thanks!
Dave Proper
