[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] location of villages

[Jan Textor]

Penny,

Re 2.
As far as I know, there is no place in Poland called Szczapanow.  However, 
there are at least six villages or towns called Szczepanów.  One of these is 
located at the coordinates 50.01'N 20.40'E, 17.6 kilometers ENE of Bochnia.

Re 3.
Again, as far as I know, Sabotaka and Warclaw are not valid Polish place 
names.  My guess is that Warclaw is actually the city of Wroclaw (formerly 
Breslau), and that Sabotaka should be Sobótka.  You will find a village 
called Sobótka at the coordinates 50.54'N 16.45'E, 29.8 kilometers SW of 
Wroclaw.  This village was formerly called Zobten or Zobten am Berge.

Hope this helps.
