[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Location of Mjetschislaw

[Gerald Klatt]

Gary

Excerpt from the article "Homeland for a Time" by Josef Weiss:

"Mieczyslawow (=Mieczystaw) was probably the oldest of settlements in this 
area (north-) east of Torczyn. The first settlers were: Priess, Schmidtke, 
Gatzke, Strohschein and Lucht. Together they bought 165 morgan of land. 
....(during the Russian revolution) Almost all the homes (Juljanow-Boratyn) 
were destroyed. Only in Mieczyslowow were all the house stilling standing. 
Here a Cossack unit had its headquarters for a rather long time."

Index of farm owners before WW1

Mieczyslawow:
1. Samuel Pries
2. Emil Gellert
3. Jakob Sauder
4. August Lach
5. Gatzke
6. Widow Strohschein
7. Julius Strohschein
8.  Gatzke

Pawlow:
1. Boelter
2. Weber


I also have the farm owners names for the neighbouring areas of: Juljanow, 
Zablotce, Czarnelozy. Kurhany, Marksmillerszczyzna.

Regards,


Gerald

Thank you both.

The location of Mietschislaw-Boratin would seem to fit best since other 
relatives (via marriage) were from Pawlow as well as Schepel.

Now if I can find any references to my great grandmother, Theophile Malarsch 
(Canadian family entries are generally Teofila Malachevski or some 
variation) I would be making progress.

Thanks again

Gary

Gary,

A couple of notes related to the previous e-mails, the name Gerald suggested 
is in German "Mietschislaw-Boratin; its location on the Stumpp map is D5; it 
is northeast of Torczyn; in 1927 it had about 25 German farms and 80% of its 
population was German.

Mietschislawow is southwest of Torczyn; it was dissolved before 1928.

Hi Gary

Could be Mieczystaw-Boratyn, near Schepel.


Regards,

Gerald
