Genealogy / Help with place names; Lubow in Lwow [7]

Dear littlemak_uk:

Sure, I'm a couple of years late to the party, but...

The town given (in its formerly Polish spelling) as "Kuszniszcze in Lubomil" is almost surely the town known nowadays as "Kusnishcha" or "Kusnishche" in Ukraine, located only about 2 miles north of the larger town of Lyuboml' (formerly "Luboml" in Polish) at latitude and longitude coordinates 51°17'N 24°02'E. Before the war, this town was in the Luboml district of the Wolyn province of Poland.

The last permanent residence given as "Helm" is probably the (still) Polish town of Chelm, located across the border in Poland, about 20 miles west of Kusnishche.

The National Archives of Ukraine might be able to help you with locating genealogical resources. They have a website you can google up. I am a new member here, so this message posting system will not allow me to simply write it here.

Reagdrs,
