Family genealogy
The Landschaft cousins, Holocaust survivors
What struck my father most was that in the Landschaft family, there was at least one survivor in each of the family branches of his uncles and aunts.
Of a family with around a hundred recorded names of uncles, aunts, cousins and part of their family that I was able to learn about, only 14 survived the Holocaust.
I do not know the family realities of 26 cousins of my father, who must also have wives and children, which at the very least must cover about a hundred people.
Their story during the Holocaust
I haven't been able to reconstruct the history of three families; my research, particularly in Argentina for the Krozneki family, has been unsuccessful. I haven't ruled out finding them, unless they've changed their names.
As for Yoel Posluszny and Yossele Bialokaminski, I know that they went to Israel around the 1960s.
But I never knew them, nor their descendants. No one passed down their stories to me.
1- In the family of Aunt Chudès-Gitla,
His son, Wolf Krozneki, is said to have left for Argentina before the war.
I couldn't find it in my research in Argentina!
4- In Aunt Chana-Pesla's family, only one boy survived: Yoel Posluszny.
I don't know his story.
What I remember is that my father found him in Haifa, in extreme poverty, and asked Heniek to help him.
It seems to me that he was among those who left Poland in the 60s or 70s.
8- In Aunt Sara's family , only one son will escape death, Yossel Bialokaminski.
During the war, Yossele managed to reach the Soviet Union, apparently without his family, who perished in the Holocaust.
`When he returned in 1946, he settled in Sosnoviec where he started a new family.
It was in 1958 that they left Poland and settled in Israel, near Gedera, in an agricultural village, a mochav.
My mother, who visited him in her moshav, nicknamed him
"Coucouricou" when she saw him in the middle of her poultry farm. It remained his nickname for the whole family.
