Voronkiv

History[edit]

The Olizar family inherited this village and the surrounding lands, then later leased it to Sophia Teofila Danylovychivna, leading to many legal court proceedings surrounding the ownership of the village.[1]

During the Holodomor, this village, like many others throughout Ukraine, experienced widespread hunger, leading to numerous deaths from starvation.[2]
