- **Żółkiewka liquidation table (~1866) — tentative lead (unproven).** Household **57** (project no. 59) of the *miasteczko* Żółkiewka *tabela likwidacyjna*, Part II "Плацовники" (town plot-holders, per the ukaz of 28 Oct / 9 Nov 1866), is recorded as **"Гохманъ Іосъ" (Hochman Jos/Josek)**, a 9-morgi entry. No living **Żółkiewka-born** Hochman named Josef fits in 1866 (the only vault Josef Hochman b. Żółkiewka, 1819, died 1821), so this profile — Josef Leyb Hochman, b.1830 [[Gorzków]], of the Gorzków Hochman line — is the closest vault candidate. Gorzków adjoins Żółkiewka, making a plot there plausible, but the identification is **unproven**; recorded as a lead only.
