Adolf Szmosz

This is a picture of my cousin, Adolf Szmosz, the son of Paulina Szmosz, my mother's sister, taken during World War II. He was a talented engineer, had a degree from Lwow Technical University and before the war worked at the Zgoda steel plant, owned by the Wspolnota Interesow. It was a very large factory, manufacturing the largest and best machines in Poland at the time.
