Place of birth

[edit]

Szenstochowa is a terrible mispelling, but it sounds like Częstochowa. I also found [1] which lists "Polya Pilin" as "Born in Czenstochow. Attended the Czenstochower Y.L. Peretz School. Came to America in 1930 and here she became famous as a painter. She had exhibits in New York, Chicago and in other places and was warmly received everywhere." Mispellings aside, I think we can correct her place of birth. PS. On the topic of mispellings, neither Sukonic or Sunockin sounds particularly Polish, but that's hard to figure out without more sources. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:23, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
