Szczepany, Poland

26 Jan 2010 / #1

I think I've traced my great-grandfather to a village outside of Bialystok called Szczepany. Anyone ever heard of this place or know anyone who's from there? I'd love to try to make contact with someone to see if any records of my great grandfather's birth or his family still exist.

My atlas-gazetteer does not list a Szczepany anywhere in Poland. In the area near Białtsyok I couldn't spot a town that spells anything close to that.

Across Poland there is 1 Szczepanek, 3 Szczepanki, 1 Szczepankowice, 7 Szczepankowo, 4 Szczepanowice, 1 Szczepanowo, 6 Szczepanów, and 1 Szczepańcowa.

Sorry I was not much help.

There are at least 2. One is about 30km from Bialystok and the other, I think, is near Czestochowa
