Remembering the Jews of Lubaczow
Other names: Libatchov, Libechuyv, Liubachev, Lubachov, Lubatchov, Lubichuv

1920's and 1930's
 
The two following lists from around the same time (ca 1930), will show you an interesting phenomena:
Among the 28 telephone listings, seven are Jews.
Among the nearly 280 business listings, around 235 are Jews.
Conclusion: Business directories give more information.


The telephone list below consists mostly of official offices with very few personal names.

The business directory below is from 1929.

The original is arranged according to professions. F.ex. ”Doctors:”, ” Bakers :”

Out of the ca 280 listings, around 235 are Jews. Out of the remaining 45 non Jews were my local contact Greg Bauman’s greatgrandmother A. Argasinska who was a midwife and his greatgrandfather A. Argasinski who sold meat. A small world!

In February 2001 I found a wonderful new resource at the National Library in Warszawa - microfilm # 87068 which contained an address list from the year 1935 covering the area called Malopolska (Lwow, Tarnopol and Stanislawow). For the smaller places outside the big cities there is a schematically arranged list of officials and members of certain professions (lawyers, doctors, midwives, engineers, etc.). I have copied this information in two different ways - one keeping the original order of entries and the second arranging the names alphabetically.

The following story explains how Lipa, a young communist from Lubaczow, wanted to live the perfect life in Birobidzan. It was written by Lipa's cousin Joshua Heilman.
