Hi Daryl, Probably, it is a Mazewo. There are three villages of Mazewo in Poland which formerly used to be under a Russian rule. Two of them are next to each other and are located 27 miles to NW of Warsaw and the third one is located about 105 miles to NE of Warsaw. There is also a village of Mazew, located about 80 miles to the west of Warsaw. This village was also under the Russian rule at that time.
