village economics, consider including a intl coupon/stamp w/your inquiry. These can be purchased at your local post ofc and will help expedite response.

Hannia: The name of your ancestral village is OSTROVO (coordinates 52.17N-24.14E). It is appx 7.3 miles NW of Kobryn, the district center town. Nearby villages are Matsy, Strigovo, Shipovichi, Khutsi, Batchi, Andronovo, Stolpy and Tevli. The village is too small/less than 500 people to have its own post ofc. The filial post ofc is c/o Strigovo (zip code 225871). Consider writing a letter to the Village Administrator (Golova Silskoji Rady) and making an inquiry re any surviving relatives still residing in the village. Using Russian for communication is ideal. Given general village economics, purchase & send an intl postal coupon along w/your inquiry. These can be purchased at your local post ofc.

Visited your website and thought you might want to add this re your GGrandmother's ancestral village.
From late 18th century to 1919 wies/village Cewkow (Polish name) was predominantly a Ruthenian/Ukrainian village w/its own Greek Catholic Church. Cieszanow was the administrative district and Lubaczow was the judicial/tax district. The filial Roman Catholic Church for the Polish villagers was in Dzikow Stary. Cewkow was in the Galicia
Province, administered by ethnic Poles for the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In 1919 Galicia came under Reconstituted Poland, which had been a non-geopolitical entity for the prior 125 yrs. In the late 40's many of the ethnic Ukrainians were deported to the Ukraine SSR or to the formerly German occupied Polish territories like Warclaw.
