Group One : Family name on stone



There is one Zindel Orenstein listed in the Lubaczow Yizkor list. 
How, and if, he is connected to Gerschon OHRENSTEIN, is not known.  In theory he could be the son or  the grandson of Gerschon OHRENSTEIN.

Searching for more information about Zindel OHRENSTEIN, I found that Sindel ORENSTEIN born March 25th 1913 in Lubaczow and was married to Ides  nee KOWLASKI from Rypin, Poland.
He was a tailor and was deported to his death from  Belgium to Auschwitz on Aug 29th 1942, together with his wife. He was 29 years old. She was 25.
This information is based on a Deportation list found in List of the Jews deported from Belgium - Jewish Museum of Deportation and Resistence at Mechelen / Malines.
