[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Szklaney Bozynskiey

[Jerry Frank]

I think this may just solve the mystery!

There are 3 Huta Szklana in Poland, 2 in Russian Poland.

The first one is on the SE edge of Lodz, just above Wandalin and just west 
of Wisniowa Gora - prime German settlement area.

The second is 26 km due east of Kielce.  This is not prime German area but 
of interest is that it is close to a larger town called Bodzentyn.  Could 
this be the elusive Bozynskiey?
