21°0'

This location is compared to the location of Warszawa.  Selecting the choice
of searching for Biale Blota using the coordinates (52°25' 19°56') of Zyck
Polski, we obtain the following results compared to the location of Zyck
Polski::

Is the Biale Blota that is only 30 miles NNW of Zyck Polski a possible
match?  Or is that too far away?

Biale Bloto 52°50' 19°44' E M U Poland  30.0 miles NNW of 52°25' 19°56'

By clicking on one of the map choices (E,M,U), you can see exactly where the
town is located.
