Michalovce Family Photographs
To be inclusive, we contacted all of the Michalovce researchers with an e-mail address listed in JewishGen (as of 15 January 2009). We asked each person contacted for family photographs or anything else to make the Michalovce shtetl web pages in JewishGen's KehilaLinks more interesting for all current and future researchers. Our sincere appreciation is expressed to all who responded.
Following you will find photographs of Jewish families that once lived in Michalovce. In some cases, the photographs you see survived the Holocaust only because they were mailed to relatives in the United States and elsewhere or they were held by non-Jewish friends in Michalovce during the war and retrieved by survivors after the war.
If you have a family photograph to contribute, click HERE to contact me.
