Oy ...

I have finaly found documents concerning my husband's maternal family
- these are records of the Jewish Registry >from Brussles, concerning
m embers of the LESLAU Family, who came to Brussels >from Lodz.
However, the birth place of my late father in law - Szulem Einoch
Leslau is written on one doc as "Leneyce ", on another child's card
it is given as " Linchess " and on the third child's card, as
"Lynczyz". On the birth certificate of a 4th child, next to the name
of the father's birth place, it is noted "Pologne russe (Russian
Poland).

The problem is that neither of the spellings gives any thing that
makes sense when I try to locate the place with shtetel sekaer.

Anyone has an idea of what is this place and where ? Furthermore,
does the town of "Pentka" means anything to anyone ?

Tks in advance
