Dear all:
Thanks for the pictures. From what I have seen in the (poor quality) Wyszogrod Mormon microfilms, there were lots of BAUMs straight from the 1820s when surnames were finally adopted by Jews. I have no idea why (either they were all ‘one big family’, or they might have wanted to ‘confuse the enemy’, or who knows why). My grandmother was Dora BAUM/BOIM/BOJM whose family moved from Wyszogrod to Konskie, then Bendin, Lodz, Brussels and Tel-Aviv. And to many other places as well.

Best regards to all.

Dear all,
Thank you for the photos.
Me and my family are going there next April.
My grandfather's family are all from Wyszogrod.
I Amazon descended of the Pasternak family.
My grandfather Avrum and his sister Marisha are the only original Pasternaks remaining from that great family.
Avrum lives in Israel, and Marisha lives in the US.
After the war, my grandfather came back to Wyszogrod with his wife and son (my dad).
The Polish government was transferring citizens with the resettlement after taking back territories back from Germany.
They were transferred to lower Expedia, to Swiebodzice, where they lived until 1958, when they made aliyah to Israel.
