A fine stay in Warsaw and lots of documentation discovered.
Stanislaw willed dzialka No.3 in Ulanska Dola to Renia in 1960.
He specified the following location.
"3km east of Targovica between the villages of Zawale and Zady"
.
To the north was a state forest and to the south a road.
Neighbour plots were Jozefa Sordela, Jana Krasickiego, Walentego Beka.
The plot consisted of 12 hectacres of land
A further 1 hectacre by the river for grass and reeds
A house made from 17cm timbers/wood and covered in straw (sloma )built 1922 - 350 m3
A barn made with thick timbers built 1923 - 400m3
A stable built 1925 - 180m3
A well built 1923
In 1989 it was valued at zl 56million ( old zloty millionaire )
(need to divide by 10,000 zl to arrive at devaluation/todays rate. about 5600zl)
More facts: UŁancy were Polish Cavalry with sabres.
Ulanska Dola translates something along the lines of Dale of the Sabred Cavalry
I believe these osady were defensive - like a border/home guard.
If you were to plot all the Osady I wonder if there is a strategic pattern with regards to their locations.
Bye for now
