This is wonderful !!!!

Reason you cannot find it is because there is Velyki (Greater) Sorochyntsi and Mali (Smaller) Sorochyntsi = Великі Сорочинці & Малі Сорочинці . He was likely from Velyki, since he used only Sorochyntsi. https://maps.google.com/maps?ll=50.032222,33.958333&spn=...

Road into selo/village Velyki Sorochyntsi (Larger Shirtwearers). The Church of the Transfiguration is 18th century Baroque. This was where Hryhoriy (Gregor) was likely christened.

Velyki Sorochyntsi was the birthplace of the great writer and dramatist, Mykola Hohol = Nikolaj Gogol. This is still a Cossack village of appx 3,600 residents.

Let me check a few things and I will get back to you a little later. Although the village suffered great loses during the Holodymir (Stalin's Artificial Famine) in 1932-33 and then in 1946-1947, I think your chances of finding Gregor's surviving family is still a possibility. If you go back to that partial list I provided, you will see that there are still people w/Maslivetz surname living in the village. I did try calling the mayor's office, but they were already closed. Will try again tomorrow, first thing AM.
