Die Anfrageverteilstelle für genealogische Fragen aus dem Ausland benötigt
die Schwarmintelligenz, um eine Frage aus USA zu beantworten:
"I'm doing research on a Polish Catholic man (His name is/was Edmund Dreger
(at least this is the spelling I have in Polish) born in Zdunska Wola,
Poland), who for many years took care of an old Jewish cemetery in his small
town in Poland. There are many interesting stories connected to this
cemetery. A story I heard, and which I would like to confirm, is that he was
a German (or Polish-German) police commander in during the Second World War
in Warta, Poland during the Second World War.
He apparently was born in Poland and then working under the Nazi occupation,
reportedly helped save a Jewish woman's life. The woman converted to
Catholicism before the war, but would have still been deemed Jewish by many
people. Apparently after the war, this man's life was spared and he ended up
in Germany. How might I try to confirm if, indeed, all this is true, and
perhaps tracking down any descendants?"
Wer kann, bitte, helfen, Hinweise geben? Wer hat von dem Fall gehört?
Mit freundlichem Gruß/kind regards/amicalement
