[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Nice random finding on Bremen lists - Oljuka village

[Jerry Frank]

Mauricio,

The spelling according to your document is Oljuka.  Our own SGGEE maps have a village called Oluka located a short distance SW of Torczyn.  I think that is a good match though cannot guarantee it is correct.  This is relatively close to Rozyzcze.
