History / Mother tongue in Poland - acccording to 1931 census. [174]
my grandmother was from polesie and was an ''other, local'' which means poleszuk. poleszuk people are eastern slavic people who have thair own unique culture and languaue called polessian language which some considered a dialect of Ukrainian. most poleszuk people have Ukrainian last names and its thought that most poleszuki are closely related to modern day Ukrainians as they both descend from the same ancient Slavic tribes of Kieven rus!
also the poleszuk people where heavily russified before ww1 and then heavily polanized after ww1.
about 70% of poleszuk people live in northern Ukraine and the rest mainly in southern Belarus with small communities in poland and russia.
the polish community in polesie had little to do with the poleszuk '' locals''
