My great-great grandmother was Alexandra Juszkiewicz ( spelling varies). I see some threads that are close, but none refer to Tarnopol, Poland, during the Hapsburg Empire, now Ternopil Ukraine. She married my direct paternal ancestor Elias Olesnicki, somewhere between 1812 (I'm guessing, because he was likely born in 1790 in Volhynia, (now Volyn, Ukraine) and 1816, when his eldest child, Gregorius, was born in Pieniacki, near Brody and Pidkamin, Ukraine. So, Elias married Alexandra somewhere in that area, not Lithuania, or Latvia, other places where I've seen threads for this name. I can't help anyone with her parental line, but am wondering whether anyone has information about the name prior to, let's say 1800, so that I can go further back. All her children were Olesnicki at birth, 3 sons survived childhood and 5 daughters. One married a Rudnicki, another a Petricki, and another a Berezanski. Two I couldn't find further trace of after birth. If anyone can help me, great, if this helps anyone, greater yet.
