Subject: [SEELANGS] Another puzzle for your consideration

Seelangs people in the past have been very helpful in suggesting solutions
to
questions raised on another list I am on, specifically a Jewish 
genealogy list.  As you
may imagine, many questions arise of Slavic interest.
Someone has discovered on pre-WW I immigrant US entry docs the location
Savil, Russia.  Although the list has a program that will take 
distorted English spellings
and suggest possible matches in other parts of the world, nothing has 
come up for this.
Any ideas, anyone?
Keep in mind that all sorts of distortions are possible, alphabetic 
as phonetic.
