Searching for the location of 'Rubanivka'

Paul,

Your search is well worth the effort.

Kiyevsky rayon = Kiyevo-Svyatoshinskij raion today.

???
How does this village strike you? As per mail zip code index, this is only one starting w/letters RUB. I have not gone thru every village in this district and see if there is a cluster village w/the name Rubynovka.

While I am checking for cluster villages, following are Chyzhky currently found in Kyiv (the capital) telephone directory:
Чижський В І 2442402 Никольско-Ботаническая Ул., д. 31, к. 35, кв. 24

Thanks again Hannia. I note your link takes me to Rubezhivka and its orthodox church - such churches are definitely relevant to my enquiry, having so many 'Czyzski/Chyzhky' involved in it! On a 1891 map the same Rubezhivka is spelt the Polish way as Rubiezewka (with a dot on the z). I have to keep this place in mind but I still prefer the other one, Rubanka. This is a subjective preference indeed.

Do we have as a member of this forum who is a resident from Kijv and who I can get in touch with to make phone calls on my behalf to these three Chyzhky residents? There would be a simple question to ask them:

"do they know of a Jakob Chyzhky who was married to a Stanislawa 'Tarnogurska'; she was born in 1897 at Kozjatin, her father was in the railways. Jakob's father had a relatively high position in the orthodox church, he had many brothers and sisters who could all play a different musical instrument. When they played together it was like an orchestra."

And if I hit the jackpot with one of them, then I would obviously like to communicate further with that family....

Well I am afraid that's all I can say about my grandfather.

They do not coincide - Kyivsko-Sviat. rajon and Kyivsky ujezd.
Yes I came across this village when checking the village list for this rajon - only it did not draw my attention due to its double name - Probably you are right Hannia - Bravo!
Here is a detailed history of the village:

Thanks for the link, Irene; sounds like it might be it. It is definitely close to Kyiv. If you and Hannia are pointing the finger at that location then it must be right.

Paul,

I called again today and was asked to call Larissa tomorrow. Was told she is expecting my call.
