This information is taken from the incredible Jewish Genealogical website www.jewishgen.org. Among the many diverse databases is this one-the 1929 Polish Business Directory, which lists thousands of cities, towns and villages. The Jewishgen site states: "The Polish Business Directories of the 1920s and 1930s have thousands of pages of information about people in current and former areas of Poland, including regions now part of the Vilna area of Lithuania, the Grodno area of Belarus, and Volhynia and East Galicia, now parts of the western Ukraine." I encourage you all to visit their site!
