[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Kukuswalde

[Joe Pessarra]

An Internet search for Kukuswalde gets one hit.  It is in the Preussische
Allgemeine Zeitung, wishing a happy birthday for someone that came from that
town in East Prussia.  It is part of Das Ostpreussenblatt.  Below is the
main site for the publication.  I have an excellent map of old East Prussia,
but it does not have an index..

The town appears to be in Kreis Ortelsburg.  Will try to find it on my map,
and see if I can check with the location on a current map.

Well, luckily, I found Kukukswalde on my East Prussia map.  It is a little
northwest of Ortelsburg.  Looks like it has an extra "k" in the name.

ShtetlSeeker at http://www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/LocTown.asp shows the
location.  It is now Grzegrzólki, Poland, 99.1 miles N of Warszawa.
