Localities in Lida District

of Addresses], Warszawa Bydgoszcz 1929
Compiled by Ellen Sadove Renck
Many of these localities did not have a Jewish
Community. Yet this does not mean that no Jewish families lived there.
Shmarya Levin [1867-1935] was born and grew up in Swizlowitz, a Shtetl
at the confluence of the Svisla and Beresina Rivers in Belarus. I have
not been able to find it unambiguously in ShtetlSeeker, but Levin says,
in his autobiography, Childhood in Exile, [1975 reprint by Arno Press of 1929
ed. by
Harcourt, Brace, p 8] that it wasn't far
from Borisov [54
15 lat 28 30 long], ENE of Minsk. On page 86, Levin says: "On Rosh
Hashannah, New Year's Day, the Yishuvniks came to
town. There is no word for Yishuvnik in English, for the type is
unknown to the language. They are Jews who live abandoned in the midst
of some village or settlement, alien figures in a world not their own.
Months may pass before they see the face of another Jew. Only on the
High Holidays they leave their occupations, and flock to the nearest
Jewish centre". If there was a word for them, there must have been
quite a lot of them. We provide as thorough a list as possible to
assist the descendants of Yishuvniks from Lida District.
If
you see no
coordinates, we could not identify this locality on modern maps. Many
tiny hamlets have been abandoned over the years, or names changed
beyond recognition. If you did not find a locality with coordinates
listed here on the Lida Uezd Towns page [on the navigation bar at
left], we have no other information about it. To find the
nearest locality with information, use the Jewishgen
Communities Database and Jewishgen Gazeteer's "search for
places by location - radius search" function with the coordinates from
this table.
NOTE:
There is a second Belitsa
east of the Belitsa in Lida District. There is a second Butrymonis
northeast of Alytus, Lithuania. Mariampol, Lida
District at 54 34/ 25 19 is NOT the Mariampol,
Lithuania at 54 34/ 23 21 that has an independent KehilaLinks
site. [Kris Nekvedavicius informed me (2006) that there is no Mariampol
at this latitude in Belarus]. There are shtetlach named Nowy
Dwor and Szczuczyn
in Poland in addition to the ones in Lida District, Belarus. Olninek:
it's tempting to think this unknown place represents a typo for
Olkinek/Olkieniki, now in Lithuania. At 5421/ 2450, it's north of the
boundary of Nowogrodek wojed., however. Zelva:
There's a Zelva in Lithuania, north of Vilnius. There's another Zelva
in Belarus, south of Lida District. Both places are larger than Zelva
in Lida District, which is today called Velkaves. References to Jews in
Zelva are far more likely to be referring to the other 2 Zelvas. In
general, be aware that names were often duplicated.
