Hi All,

I recently returned from Eastern Europe where I visited my 21
ancestral towns. I chronicled each trip on my blog, which can be found
at https://nilapidus.com . I tried my best to contextualize what
remains in each town as accurately as possible. The 21 towns I visited
are:

Minsk, Belarus
Lida, Belarus
Kobryn, Belarus
Divin, Belarus
Karelichy, Belarus
Mozyr, Belarus
Boryslav, Ukraine
Ovruch, Ukraine
Ilnyk, Turka, Ukraine
Vaslui, Romania
Kudirkos Naumiestis, Lithuania
Baisogala, Lithuania
Lygumai, Lithuania
Seirijai, Lithuania
Punia, Lithuania
Vilnius, Lithuania
Marijampole, Lithuania
Riga, Latvia
Siemiatycze, Poland
Miedzyrzec, Poland
Suwalki, Poland

I hope you find these useful in your research or trip preparations!
