Gilberto,

Last column in line 1 is Radziejow, with Gosławice, Konin, wielkopolskie in column "Miejsce poprzedniego zamieszkania" (former residence).
The same in line 5, with Wąsewo, Radziejów County in column "Miejsce poprzedniego zamieszkania".
Radziejow is circa 50 km towards North from Gosławice.

The tricky "Lejna or Sejna" -- unrelated to Sejny - could be Wieścice, another 65 km from Gosławice towards South-East.
The written name is "Wieś Scjna", my guess is that it should be a name in two parts.
The closest, immediate, "wieścina" means little village, similar to "mieścina" little town.

Sorry, no better idea.
Best,
Elzbieta

Thanks, Elzbieta

I think the name of place is: Góra Motyczna

You can see it in on the old Austrian Empire map (I centered it on Góra Motyczna, otherwise enter this name in search field)
