Kalinoucryzna means SURROUNDED BY VIRBINUM TREES (look like cranberry shrubs/
also referred to as Guelder Roses) in Ukrainian.

From late 18th century to 1919, wies/village Kalinowszcyzna (Polish name) was actually a hamlet > Czortkow was both the administrative and the judicial/tax district > filial Greek Catholic Church was in Bialoboznica and filial Roman Catholic Church was in Chomakowka>Tarnopil Region > Galicia Province, administered by ethnic Poles for the AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN EMPIRE. 1919-1939 this region came under Reconstituted Poland's domain. Poland had not existed as a geopolitical entity for the previous 125 yrs. Post WW2 Ternopil became part of Soviet Ukraine until Ukraine became independent in 1991.

TODAY selo/village Kalinovocryzna (49.03-25.41) is still very small w/o its own post ofc, using the one in Bilobozhnitsia, .8 miles W of Kalinoucryzna > Chortkivskij raion/district > Ternopilska Oblast/Region > Ukraine (UA abbr).

To locate ancestral village use spelling Kalinowszcyzna in UKRAINE.

Consider writing Village Administrator and inquiring re any surviving family still in the village.To communicate at local level communicating in Ukrainian is ideal. To expedite response, purchase an intl postal coupon and include it w/you inquiry. Make sure to address envelope in Ukrainian and print UKRAINE on bottom of envelope to facilitate process at your local post ofc.

I do not see that LDS has filmed the metrykal records for Bilobozhnitsia. You will in all likelyhood have to make an inquiry thru Ternopil Oblast Archives. There is no prepayment at Ukrainian Archives. I would hold off until September, because all Archives in Ukraine are closed for summer holiday in August.

Doublecheck w/Mark (mgdusyk@telus.net), Canadian-Ukrainian who is on top of what is or is not available thru LDS, before making any Archives inquiry. I could be wrong re Bilobozhnitsia GC Records???
