DID THESE CHILDREN SURVIVE THE HOLOCAUST?
November 1997
The two TV programs, "Missing Identity" dealt with the subject of children survivors. These children, born approximately during the years 1935-1945, are looking for information and persons connected with their past. After the two programs, we received many letters, mostly from Israel. Many of these letters concern children lost during Holocaust. Did they survive? What happened to them? It is so difficult to grasp the every day lives of those who wrote us, 52 years after the end of the war. Among them were: Mothers and fathers searching for their little children. Brothers and sisters still hoping to find their siblings. Children born AFTER the Holocaust trying to find out what happened to the children born to their parents BEFORE the Holocaust. These children might, at least in theory, be children with missing identities. Here is the list of names and details about children who disappeared during the Holocaust. These children were born approximately during the years 1930 and 1945, with some exceptions. Some of these children also appear a second time as part of their whole family in our list of families and grownups.
Family names are listed alphabetically in blue.
At the bottom of each message next to the filenumber you will find EMAIL. By clicking it you will be able to send an email concerning the children listed here. ONLY emails with a referring filenumber will be send to our researchers.

HONIG, Bronislaw, Bronus born Oct. 8th 1935, Krakow, Poland
- Mother: Rose Honig
- Father: David Honig
- The parents and Bronus were sent to Plaszow after the liquidation of the Ghetto in Krakow. Here the parents managed to smuggle their son out to a female non jJewish co worker, probably with the family name Jarosh. This woman would take Bronus to a street corner to allow the parents to see their son on their way between their workplace and the Plaszow camp. The last time they saw him was in sept. 1943
- After the war the father went back to Krakow to search for his son. The apatment was empty, as if the woman and Bronus had moved out. " Rogowicz" has some connection to this story.
- The parents died two years ago, but Bronus' sister Barbara who was born after the war, hopes to find her lost brother or to know what happened to him
