Were your parents deported to the same place? ?Did you already know that the Hoover Institution (Box 172) has the "Amnesty Certificate" of a Franciszek Piotrowski (surname recorded as "Pietrowski" due to inexact ?translation from Russian), son of Michal, born in 1916 in Tarnopol province? ?With sons Zbigniew born 1937 and Mieczyslaw born 1940? ?It records that he was held captive at "Priluzskoie Raionnoie Otdelenie".

A Bogumila Klosowska, daughter of Jan and born in Miechow country, Kielce province in 1922, was also captive at "Priluzskoie Raionnoie Otdelenie" (Amnesty Certificate in Hoover, Box 162). ?Perhaps a relative of your mother's (who I believe was born in Zembrocin, Miechow county on 26.6.1911)?

May be worth getting hold of those certificates if you do not have them yet....

If you go to http://www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htm and plug in KOLBISZOWA and select Russia you get over 20 potential candidates. ?However, these 2 seem more likely given the spelling and pronounciation:

KOLBYCHEVO ???54.24 N. 127.11 E. ?Russia ????3286.2 miles NE of Moscow
KOLBYSHEVO ? ???56.27 N. 74.40 ?E. ?Russia ????1411.5 miles ENE of Moscow

and maybe CHALBYSHEVO ???58.04 N. 91.54 E ????Russia ????1998.1 miles ENE of Moscow

Did your family have any documents from the British or Polish forces that might narrow down the region?

On the other hand, by July 1942 she would have already been released under the 1941 Sikorski-Majsky ?agreement and this could well have been a place in transit. ?For clues on the original holding place, it is worth looking for other clues. ?

[...] interested in the comments you made about the Hoover Institution holding Amnesty Certificates. Do they have these for most families/individuals who were deported to, and released from, Siberia? I've no idea where my father's family were sent to. Perhaps these could tell me and how can copies be obtained.
