Henryk Lewandowski with his uncle Moniek Jungman

This is me and my uncle Mojzesz, or Moniek, Jungman, born in 1921 or 1922. He was my mother youngest brother. The photo was taken in Zamosc in 1937 or 1938. At the turn of 1941, Moniek, was killed. After Lwow and Ukraine had been taken by the Germans, as a result of the German-Soviet war in June 1941, Mom's brothers and sister returned, Uncle Izaak, however, immediately left for some place in the Krasnobrod area. Aunt Rozia and Uncle Moniek stayed in Zamosc. As the deportations began, everyone tried to figure something out. Aunt Rozia had a 'good' appearance. A schoolmate of her from Zamosc looked a bit alike and she gave her her ID in the name Halina Nowosadowicz, and so Rozia left for Warsaw; she later assumed the name Halina Skalska and sent the ID back to her schoolmate. 'Halina' worked for Zegota, she was a runner there. Moniek was a young, handsome boy, popular with the girls. He was arrested by the Gestapo. It was said they sent him to Majdanek, but as it later turned out they did him in at the Rotunda in Zamosc. That was the first victim in our family, even before the deportations.
