Yad Vashem


Sometimes this research hits a wrong turn.  I thought that I might have uncovered a link to the Farber family, when I found a record for Hirsch Farber, born 1916 to Shimon and Rivka, in Tomaszow Lubelski.  Hirsch was murdered in Treblinka, אַ‭ ‬דײַטש‭ ‬האָט‭ ‬אין‭ ‬טרעבלינקע‭ ‬ער‭ ‬פֿאַרברענט

Inspection of the original page of testimony suggested to me, however, that Hirsch was from Tomaszow Mazowiecki, which is closer to central Poland.  Perhaps the Farber family moved there after the emigration of 1914?  Don't know, but I contacted Yad Vashem in 2008, and they agreed that the record should be changed.  So, remain skeptical of everything.
