Guenther:
This may not be of significance but then again, might be worth mentioning.
There was also a village called Jadwinin, which was one of 6 villages
founded by Wistula delta Mennonites, and situated below Ostrog. Virtually
the entire group under the leadership of Elder Tobias Unrah, emigrated to
America in 1874.(Walter Kuhn mentions these in "Deutsche Taeufersiedlungen
im west-ukrainischen Raume"). Many german Lutherans  moved into these
villages after 1874 and I suppose some may have also been living there
before 1874.
