Hello

My grandmother's autograph book has got 2 inscriptions that mention
places that I do not know and I would certainly appreciate any
suggestions on where these could be.

One is possibly "Shtotzy" (she was there February 2, 1935) and can be
found on Viewmate at
http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM60621

The other is "Makov" (she was there January 31, 1935) and is on
http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM60623

Jewishgen has 5 possibilities - all 500km+ from her home shtetl.

She would have travelled from Motol 52 19 N 25 36 E (220 km SW of
Minsk), now in Belarus, then in Poland. She travelled by train
according to one of the above inscriptions.
