My mother's family is from Radziwillow. I happened to come across the Sabina Inka Kagan page within "Missing-Identity.net" and brought the child's picture to show my mother, along with the various details. My mother, who is 86, recalls her family speaking about a "Kagan" family and recalls discussion of a flour mill. She also remembers the name Czernich. Her father spoke about the Kagan family being "wealthy". My mother comes from a large family who owned a farm and storefront business on the property. Their name was Specktor. My mother is still looking for various people on her father's side of the family. If the reader of this message knows of other survivors from that town, I would appreciate knowing how to get in touch with them.

I happened to also read comments directed at Sabina from "David Oliwek" who stated his mother was also from Radziwillow. I would like to be put in touch with him via e-mail if possible.

Thank you.

Best wishes,

Dear Sabina,
You and I talked a while back several times. I put you in touch with my Mother who is from Radziwillow. She knew your family and your mother quite well. She knows a great deal about the whole family. If you recall I had spoken to you when you were in Israel some years ago. My Mother asked you to call her friend Eva also from Radziwillow who lived two houses away from your family. I am not sure if you got a chance to speak with Eva. If you would like to talk to me please feel free to do so. If you would again like to talk to my Mother let me know and I will put you in touch with her. Sincerely, David
