I have been reading the story about Kaziany. My Father (born in 1928,
the son of Shlomo Hochman and his wife from the Pukin family of
Glubokie) and his family was from that shetel Kaziany and were with
the partisans in the forests (the father survived with parents, 2
brothers and one sister. In 1946 the family came to America ( the
mother had sisters in the U.S and they helped in order to include them
on the first ship which took survivors to America)
Do you have any knowledge of Lansdsliet Association ?

It's great that the stories are on online.

Dear Madam,
I got your address by Susan Edel from the Magen David Adom who helped me in my search.
My grandfather Henri Esterovitch came to France in the 1920s and was deported and died in Auschwitz in February 1944. I found in old documents that he had a brother Notel Esterowicz who lived in Vilnius.
On the Internet I found that the whole family who lived in Poland had been deported and killed in the Glubokoye ghetto in 1942-1943, I did not find the exact date.
I found on Wikipedia the history of this ghetto and I would like if possible to have more information about my family members in Glubokoye. It is for me a duty of memory. By the Memorial of the Holocaust in Paris, I was able to retrace the story of my grandfather from the Drancy camp near Paris when he arrived in Auschwitz. I would like to do the same for my polish family.
I thank you in advance for any help you can give me.
Michel

ps : You will fin a photo of the Notel's family taken in Vinius in 1910
