     Radoszyce<\/strong> 1.) a village in Sanok County, in the Beskid Mountains on the Barbura stream, a left tributary of the Os\u0142awica, on the road from Bukowsko to Hungary, 6 km from the post office and railway station of the Przemy\u015bl-\u0141upk\u00f3w line in Koma\u0144cza. The settlement occupies the valley of the stream at its lowest point (501 meters above sea level), sheltered from the west by a forest covering the main Beskid range, on the watershed between the Laborcza and Os\u0142awica rivers. This range forms a saddle here (645 meters elevation) between the peaks of Horb \u015aredni (922 meters) and Gro\u0144 (698 meters). The main road runs through this saddle. To the north rises Kiczera (718 meters) and Kawa\u0142\u00f3wka (616 meters), to the south Mount Radoszyce (738 meters) and Roztok (600 meters). The soil is cold and stony, the forests are mostly spruce. The village has 148 houses and 940 inhabitants (470 men, 470 women), of whom 25 are Roman Catholic, 871 Greek Catholic, and 44 Jewish. There is a primary school, a watermill, and a wooden parish church. After the annexation of Galicia, a customs office was located here on the border with Hungary. The commune acquired a large estate and owns a total of 4351 m\u00f3rgs [in Galicia 1 m\u00f3rg = 1.422 acres] (1917 m\u00f3rgs of arable land; 389 m\u00f3rgs of meadows, 877 m\u00f3rgs of pastures and 1168 m\u00f3rgs of forest). The parish priest\u2019s endowment consists of 106 m\u00f3rgs of arable land and 36 m\u00f3rgs of meadows; in addition, a common pasture with the commune, 20 cords of firewood and 1 beech tree for timber. The parish belongs to the Przemy\u015bl diocese, Ja\u015bliska deanery. It includes Os\u0142awica. Formerly, it was a royal village because in 1445 the starost [a kind of district chief or official] Kuropatwa testified before the town court records (A. G. Z., XI, 252, no. 2011) that he owed the queen 50 grzywnas [ancient silver coins, worth several denarii, used in Poland and other countries of Europe] in the village of Radichieze; in 1450 (ibid., p. 359, no. 2865) a dispute over the village headship in this village took place. It borders on the north with Do\u0142\u017cyca, on the south with Os\u0142awica, on the west with Hungary, and on the east with Duszatyn, from which it is separated by Os\u0142awica, the Przemy\u015bl-\u0141upk\u00f3w railway line and a wooded range of hills with the Jasieniowa peak (735 meters) forming the watershed between Os\u0142awica and Os\u0142awa. 2.) R.,<\/strong> part of the town of Szerzyny, in the Jas\u0142o district. M. Maciszewski<\/em>
     Radoszycki stream,<\/strong> originates in the area of \u200b\u200bRadoszyce, in the Sanok district, from under Mount Poborza (716 meters), flows north and after 2 1\/2 kilometes flows into Barbury, a tributary of Os\u0142awica, from the right bank. Bronis\u0142aw Gustawicz<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
