Family Surname: Koronovich, Ketonovich

Town: Kamajai
Date of Image: 1845

This is from the 1845 Family list for Kamajai in Zarasai region. It is a note relating to a "Ketonovich family"- regarding their registration in 1834, and their place of origin.

While I can see it says "Registration 8 in 1834", I cannot read the middle columns where it says their place of origin, nor the right column.

I would greatly appreciate a translation of especially the middle column, and identification of the town & village it mentions.

Kind regards, David
