Been seeking my great-grandmother's family for years; finally found a possible surname match in a WWII account of Nazi atrocities in Vasiliski, near Lida: witness to a mass execution, named Woloczynski. Great grammie Katy said she was born in Poland (c.1868) and raised under the German flag. She immigrated to Boston c. 1894. I just found who could be a brother, in Chicago, named Jacob Walachinski, from Vasiliski (spelled Vestchlickey in the document). This family was multilingual and of the merchant class. Could also be a connection to Trakai, near Vilnius. Anyone heard of this surname? Any ideas of where I can go to pursue these leads? Thanks.
