From late 18th century to 1921 Zhytomyrska region was a part
of the Vohlynskaya gubernia/region > Russian Empire. In the Interwar Period (1921-1939) Volyn was broken down to several regions, one of which was Zhytomyrskie wojiwodstwo/region, part of Reconstituted Poland, which had not existed as a geopolitical entity for the previous 125 yrs. Post WW2 this region became a part of SSR Ukraine, under Soviet domain until 1991, when Ukraine became independent.
Technically Oleksa Jakov/menko was born in Volyn, part of
the Russian Empire. Given the surname, he was definitely
a Vohlynian Ukrainian.
Was he Orthodox Christian or Greek Catholic?
