Esther
Wolynsky, born in Bialystok around 1930 is six years old in this
picture. She is the daughter of my father's sister. Esther, and
her mother and father, were rounded up by the nazis and killed in
the camps. My father, his mother, and his two brothers escaped before
the nazi invasion of Poland. My grandmother fled to Palestine. One
of my uncles entered illegally into America. He was afraid of being
reported to the Immigration service and so fled to Mexico where
he died of disease and poverty. My other uncle lived in America
until his death in 1953. My father bought a ranch in the San Fernando
Valley in southern California where he raised chickens. He died
at age 42 from nervousness, and sorrow.
