I have anecdotal information that a widow >from Ciechanowiec
(70 mi. ENE of Warsaw) named Chawa Gitel (KAGAN) RYBAK was
displaced during WWI and died in Ekaterinoslav on 20 May, 1920.
Unfortunately I don't have any indication of the specific town.
I've looked in the Ukraine database on JG and the Ukraine SIG
Master database of names but I don't see anything relevant.
I'm not aware of any other family in the area but Chawa Gitel
had (7) children, all but one of whom emigrated to the US or
Argentina. It's possible the one son who didn't emigrate,
Noteh RYBAK married to Basha Fagel, could have spent time in
Ekaterinoslav but I don't have any further information on him.
I'd appreciate guidance on searching further for records, but also,
context for this type of relocation. Any insights into this period
would be welcome.
