[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Place Name Assistance

[Karl Krueger]

John,
Al is correct. Bukower Wald is Bukowski Las. You might try looking in the Lublin database if you have people to search for from there. Since Bukowski Las was associated with the Kamien parish, records are more sparse but eventually we might hit pay dirt for you.

I never heard of Bragonoff so it's probably not near Lublin.

Bukower Wald is the village of Bukowski Las in the Lublin region.  Las is Polish for "Wald", English "forest"
Is Bragonoff supposed to be in the vicinity?

    I've exhausted my resources including maps, Google and ShtetlSeeker but I 
can't verify the following place names as being correct in all respects.

Bukower Wald - supposedly in Poland
Bragonoff - supposedly in Russia but that could also mean Poland or Ukraine

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated

With thanks,
John Marsch
