History / Famous Russian Poles [243]
Well, you can't find more Polish name than Sikorski ....moikrewni.pl/mapa/kompletny/sikorski.html
This name isn't polonisated version of Ruthenian name ... some Poles were simple moving on east ...
His ancestors must have been of Ruthenian szlachta origin (that is Ukrainians or Belorussians).

Travel / Castles and Palaces in Poland (with pictures) [155]
Now something about history of Polish palaces in former eastern Poland ... today Ukraine or Belarus.
Most of them are devastated so I don't know why they have stolen them ... in some they hold potatoes, cows ...
Anny way they played enormous role in resistance against Rusyfication of Polish population under Russian partition. It was the best argument against pan-Slavists from east as long as non Poles in surrounding grounds weren't able to build such
Some remains of old Polish history are still there :
Here we have interesting conection of two different styles:
Small Polish palace and Socrealistic Belrusian monument.

Florian Ceynowa had different opinion :
In the XIXth century the Kashubian activist Florian Ceynowa undertook efforts to identitfy Kashubian language, culture and traditions. He awakened Kashubian self-identity He believed in a separate Kashubian identity and strove for a Russian-led pan-Slavic federacy.He considered Poles "born brothers"
