The name Kuryło/Kuryłło appears not only in Ukraine and Belarus but also along the whole eastern boarder of Poland. The three Kuryło/Kuryłło men mention below, although born to Polish parents, lived and died in Imperial Russia/USSR. Perhaps there are some Russian-speaking decedents of them who search for their origins.

Augustyn Kuryło (1871 – 1937)
Zygmunt Kuryło (1874 – 1918)
Ludwik Kuryłło (1885 – 1932)

Augustyn Kuryło / Август Антонович Курыло (Курило)

Full Polish Name: Augustyn Arnold Kuryło
Parents: Antoni and Marianna, née Doroszewska
Born: about 1871 in Kocudza, Wojewodztwo lubelskie, Polska (then in the Russian partition)
Died: 1937-12-04 in Жито́мир, Жито́мирська о́бласть, Украї́на

Augustyn’s birth record seems to have been entered 1 or 2 years later than his real birth year and in the different parish. Kocudza belonged to the nearby Janów Lubelski (Biała) parish, not Goraj, and he could not have been born 1873-11-15 since that is just 15 weeks before his younger brother Zygmunt’s birthday. Augustin’s and Zygmunt’s father, actually Antoni Rudolf Stanisław Kuryło, was an RC church organist by education and he initially worked as one for some time. However he became a postmaster later. Just at the end of his short life, he became an organist again. Since the brother’s mother also died prematurely, they were raised by the extended family.

Augustyn was a lawyer and worked as an advocate in Saint Petersburg. There he had a wife whose maiden name was Olesztynska. Her first name is unknown. At the end of December, 1903, he went to Moscow in some business and the family did not hear from him since then. However there are Soviet era documents saying that he lived in Zhytomyr in 1930s where his wife was Рахіль (Марія) Хаїмівна (Марківна) Бронштейн-Курило. Both he and his wife were murdered by NKVD in 1937. It is unknown if Augustyn had any children. Below is some data extracted from the NKVD records (uk).

Ludwik Kuryłło / Лудвиг Курилло (?)

Full Polish Name: Ludwik Mieczysław Wincenty Kuryłło
Parents: Ludwik and Laura, née Wyżykowska
Born: 1885-01-01 in Dzików (Tarnobrzeg), Województwo podkarpackie, Polska (then in the Austrian partition)
Died: 1932-01-12 in Переволоки, Самарская область, Россия

Ludwik MW’s father was actually born Dominik Ludwik Kuryło and he was the younger brother of Antoni Kuryło, the father of Augustyn and Zbigniew. He was an agronom (pl) by education and initially worked as one in a couple of estates. However when he worked for the Tarnowski family, an aristocratic Polish family, he became the kasjer (pl) of their Dzików estate. He was a highly trusted and valued official of the estate and performed many other duties.

Ludwik MW was learning in the Dzików estate to be a brewmaster. However when he served in the Imperial Austrian army in 1904, he beat up a physically abusive Austrian officer. To avoid a trail, he escaped to Russia. It is unknown what name he used there. First he went to the Far East, probably to Астрахань, where his father’s friend (a Tatar businessman) lived, but later he moved to Ростов-на-Дону. Probably there he started to work in the fishing industry and married Karolina Sukert (Polish) in about 1916. Together they moved to Кануевка, Самарская область. It is not exactly known where and when their daughter Jadwiga was born, possibly in Ростов-на-Дону in about 1918. Karolina died soon after in Кануевка. Then Ludwik MW lived unmarried with an unknown woman for some time. In about 1926, he married a woman by the name of Maria (Russian). Her family name is unknown. Together they had two daughters, Viera and Nina. Both daughters were born in Переволоки in about 1928 and 1929, respectively. Ludwik MW died suddenly in 1932 and it is unknown what happened to his family. Attached is a picture of him, his wife and his three daughters taken probably in 1931.

Thank you Ewa.
I haven't seen this before. I wonder if the is any info about the graduates from the cadet school in Odessa from that period. Also I know that Zygmunt married Anna Dubino-Kniażycka probably somewhere there.
