Koson' Family Photographs


~ Koson' Jewish Family Photographs ~

To be inclusive, we contacted all of the Koson' researchers with an e-mail address listed in JewishGen (as of 24 December 2010). We asked each person contacted for family photographs or anything else to make the Koson' shtetl web pages in JewishGen's KehilaLinks more interesting for all current and future researchers. Our sincere appreciation is expressed to all who responded.

Below, you will find photographs of families that once lived in Koson'. In most cases, the photographs you see survived the Holocaust only because they were mailed to relatives in the United States and elsewhere.

If you a family photograph to contribute,

Alex was the youngest person—12 years old—from Koson' to survive the selection at Auschwitz, and subsequently, several concentration camps. After a few months, Alex and his father were transferred to work in a factory in Zitau, Germany. Not long before the liberation, Alex's father became weak and ill and asked Alex to do everything he could to ensure his body was not burned by the Nazis. When Alex's father passed, Alex secretly buried him. After the war, Alex found his father's grave and buried him according to Jewish custom.

Alex now lives in California.
