[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Place-names in Russia.

[Jerry Frank]

George,

Can you put these place names in context for us?  Are they all in Volhynia?

Walika might be a misreading of Wulka but it could also be 
Walki.  There are several Wulka / Wolka in Volhynia, many more in 
Russian Poland.

Domurowo might be Dombrowa but again there are many in Volhynia.

Were your ancestors always in Gross Gluscha or did they migrate 
around within Volhynia?  Would you expect these places to be close to 
Gross Gluscha?  What surnames are associated with each village (and 
in what time frame)?  If they came in at Ellis Island, can you 
provide the name and date of arrival so that we can look at the document?
