Our patron, Tim Parrott, spent some time researching the names
of the villages you asked about. He has found the following:
the village you called "Lusie" is actually "Lucie" in Polish
(or "Lutsie" in Russian). It is located in the Ukraine at
50 07 N / 28 06 E. There are two villages in the Ukraine which
may be the "Zeleznica" (Polish name) you're looking for. They are:
"Zheleznitse" located at 50 41 N / 26 58 E and
"Zheleznitsa" located at 51 41 N / 25 34 E
As for "Holendry" (Polish name), it is "Golendry" in Russian,
and there are several of those in the Ukraine. Tim suggests
you consult RUSSISCHES GEOGRAPHISCHES NAMENBUCH (published
1964-1981) for information about changes in the names of towns.
Hope this helps!
