Bielsk County is known as “Poviat Bielsk” in Polish. This map shows various locations important to our family as described in the Family Overview chapter of this site. North of Bielsk Podlaski along Route 19 is Chraboly – the origin of the Chrabolowski family name – and further north, just beyond the county boundary is Ryboly.
East of Bielsk is Uzyki, the likely origin of the Uzycki name. Southeast of Bielsk is Orla, whose Jewish community had communal jurisdiction over Bielsk Jews until about 1850.
Finally, at the bottom of the county map is a town called Sasiny. Immediately below it and across the county line is Milejczyce, home to the patriarch of our cousins in Mendoza and Buenos Aires, Argentina.
