Town Names and Coordinates

The town names are taken from the Lvovskaya Oblast’ Map, scale 1:200 000, published in 1992 by Ukrainian Cartographic Authorities, VKF TS BS. The town names and geographical coordinates are the same as the US Board on Geographic Names (US BGN), which is used in JewishGen’s ShtetlSeeker on-line.

The first column lists the town name as it was known before 1939, the next column lists the current names to be found on a map of Ukraine, and the third column contains alternative spellings Polish and modern Ukrainian names are published in Alternative Spelling column.

The figures for the Jewish population are taken from Where once We Walked, – A Guide to the Jewish Communities Destroyed in the Holocaust, by Gary Mokotoff and Salyann Amdur Sack.
