Serge,

You might try contacting Dr. Henadz' Cyxun at the Institute of Linguistics
of the Belarus Academy of Sciences in Minsk. The institute has excellent
kartoteki for the "Histarychny slounik belaruskaj movy", the "Etymalahichny
slounik belaruskaj movy" and the "Leksichny atlas belaruskix narodnyx
havorak." The email address where Dr. Cyxun can be reached is:
mab at lingvo.minsk.by .

Good luck!
