[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Prison in Ukraine?

[Helen Gillespie]

 There are many villages named Rudnik in Poland and elsewhere in eastern
Europe  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudnik.

However there is one that might be the right one - depending on whether you
pronounce the c as an "s"

It could very well have been a battle area and so a POW camp was there.  I
note that some of the other individuals were wounded - verw.  - In this
case of military, it wouldn't likely mean widowed- the German word -
verwitwet.
