Khashchuvatye, Ukraine

Khashchevatoye is in Ukraine, in the center of the country, halfway on the road Kiev - Odessa. Today it belongs to the Kirovograd Oblast (region), Kropyvnytsky Raion (district). Our neighboring Jewish communities are Gayvoron, Mogylnoye, Tashlik, Tauzhne, and further, Ternovka, Teplik, Bershad, and Uman.
