History of family names
Grandma’s name was Rosenberg. Am I Jewish? We hear questions like that rather often. Someone encounters a name with a Germanic sound to it and jumps to the conclusion that the name is Yiddish. Other “non-standard” Polish names are taken, due to their “exotic” nature, to be Hebrew — by individuals with no knowledge of Hebrew.

„These were the happiest years of her life. She was saving shivering little beings, looking in their sad eyes, she was putting them to sleep“ – writes Jadwiga, a granddaughter of a Righteous Gentile, asking: what happened to them?
Letter from Vilnius
“I would like to ask whether it is possible to identify the names of the families which are in the photographs, as well as to establish what happened to them, whether anyone survived and if they have descendents or relatives. I would be very grateful for your help.”
