Polish dictionary Vidzy found only near Braslav.
But in the same Petrokovskoy province, was the village ( note ) Vidzev . Now it's area of Lodz.

On the same name is not that simple ,
Google does not know a single inhabitant of Poland with the surname Dobrokowski,
but Dobrakowski - quite popular.
Poles ( in my experience ) usually follows closely behind the writing and transliteration of proper names, and clearly distinguish between a and a bezudanye
I have three hypotheses
a) Mieczyslaw Dobrokovsky could be one of those most Belarusian Vidzy, particularly where no one pays attention to the alternation of a and a .

b) it may be a pseudonym

c) the clerk error \\\\ clerk.

But somehow it turns out a lot of mistakes .
Ie for answers to questions should be in the archives to climb , well, or in extreme cases , watch what the relatives of the remaining documents .
