More about Kalebalosk

[ssoco]

In a military document of my grandfather it says that he was enlisted in the Russian army at the Zvenigorod district of the Kiev gubernia.
Could it be that Kalebalozk was a town or village of the Zvenigorod district?
Thanks for your replies.

Using Shtetlseeker found Zvenigorodka @ 49.05N & 30.58E. Go to very bottom of page & click DISTANCE. Then do 30 mile distance search for Zvenigorodka. Type in letter "K" for Kalebalozk. Closest transliteration I found was Kalniboloto.

Be careful when doing an Archival search. Double check that village and district center/raion are still part of Kievska Oblast. Possible that district center has also changed.

Double check everything thru Ukrainian Town Location Guide.
