Genealogy / Jasiak, Jozwiak from Byczyn/Bychyn/Byczyna [9]

Hello, I have been unable to locate which area/country/location would have been: Last Residence: "Bychyn" in 1913. Found the following in researching "Jasiak" some censuses list Russia Poland others Poland for nationality. Several different spellings even when they were on the same ship, listing the same person as brother--very hard to put the pieces together! Any suggestions?

This morning I found that the records for Bremen, Germany port were destroyed by bomb in the war.

Glad I was able to make you laugh!

I do understand, but the Passenger List gave race as: "Polish"; and the last residence as: "Bychyn".

???????

Thanks for the link,

"Bremen Passenger Lists 1920 - 1939

In the archives of the Chamber of Commerce in Bremen there still are approx. 3.000 passenger lists from ships from Bremen. This accounts for 70 percent of the passenger lists from ships, which departed from Bremen (Bremerhaven) in 1907/1908, 1913/1914 as well as between 1920 and 1939 to the USA, Canada, South America or Australia. All other passenger lists from Bremen were destroyed. The lists after 1945 are still subject to the data protection law and are preserved in the Bremen State Archives."

But, I still have not been able to locate where Bychyn was located (passenger list listed as last residence) I viewed the passenger list, but does not give where?
