Biography
Rosa Pinczewski (Pinchewski) was born December 1931 in Lodz, Poland.
"The Germans took the city [of Lodz] in September [1939] ... After four months ... my family managed to move to Polnietz, in the district of Kielce ... Two years passed ... My father and mother hid a bunker [in a stable] ... On the night of April 35, 1944, [my father] left the bunker ... He never came back ... Two months later, the owner of the stable [killed my mother and little brother] ... I ran [away] ... A woman warmed to me and took me in ... [But I had to run away again] ... I found a place with another peasant woman .. Then the Russians finally arrived. I was freed, unfortunately alone. August 2, 1944 was my day of liberation."
Six months after liberation, Rosa was brought from Poland to Germany with a group of orphaned children. Rosa became a member of a children's colony in Griefenberg where she wrote her recollections for the Historical Commission in Munich. Rosa went to Israel via Cyprus in the early part of 1948.
