The Village

From the site of Ukrainian Heraldry:
"The first data about it refers to 1629. The exact data about name origin does not exist. At one time on a place of present village were bogs. To pass or to drive, inhabitants bridged road. It is considered, that name Mascha has occured from a word "to bridge" ("mostyty")."
