You or the commun ity of Krakow can phone or write to all of them. By the way, it is amazing but I live in Korazim 10, near nr. 5) which is for sure from Polish origin (from the name).

In addition to all of this, I'll be in Yad Vashem next week and I shall print all the "Tapei Ed" filled during the years to KANAEK. From this information I hope to find descendents of your KANAREKs.

Dear Ada, thank you for this information. I will contact also the Jewish Historical Institute, they have the registration cards of the survivors, which have been filled out after the war, and I have the copies of the registers filled out by my grandmother too.

Dear Ada,

On behalf of the Jewish community in Cracow, Poland, I am looking currently for the descendants of some house-owners, who perished during Shoah, and their houses are going to be taken away soon, if no descendants are found.

The name KANAREK appears on the list, certain Anna nee Roseblum KANAREK, Amalja nee KANAREK Potok, Henryk KANAREK, Mojzesz recte Maurycy KANAREK, Salomon KANAREK, who owned houses in Cracow prior to WW2.

If there's a connection, please contact me ASAP.

With best regards,

Grzegorz Gembala
