[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Kujawa - Wolhynia

I have looked through all my resources for Volhynia and cannot find a 
Kujawa.

Kuyavy is an alternate name for the town of Sosnowka but that was in 
Galicia, not Volhynia.

It would be helpful to know the context of this place name.  What is the 
source?  Does it come from a church record or from family lore?  Is it 
possible that the reference is to a time before the colonist arrived in 
Volhynia such as to the Kujawian district of Poland?
