[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Polish parishes

[Gary Warner]

Robin,

The St. Petersburg villages are in Volhynia, not Poland, so a separate 
gazetteer will have to be developed for that area as well, and is in 
process.

Volhynia is a confusing area to do research, no matter how long you have 
been researching it.
