Today I was looking through two Polish medical directories for the years 1936 and 1938 on the incredible website www.genealogyindexer.org
For Lubaczow , for both 1936 and 1938, I found Dr. Dawid Goldreich who in 1938 lived on Rynek 8. He was born in 1893, and had finished his medical studies in 1926.
Was he married? Did he have children?
Had he escaped Europe in time?
From Yad Vashem's website I learnt that he, as a Jewish physician, had to fill in a questionnaire to the Germans during the period 1940 and 1942. He was then living in Rynek 5 (mistake for 8?) in Lubaczow, he was married, and his wife's maiden name was Stein.
A Page of Testimony submitted in 1957 by Dawid Goldreich's brother Shmuel Goldreich shows that Dawid Goldreich was born in Turka, was married to Ester nee Stein and they had one child - a daughter named Halina - born around 1930, and that they were murdered in Lubaczow in 1943.
Pages of Testimony submitted by Bluma (Pess or Pass?) nee Stein, the sister-in-law of Dr. Dawid Goldreich, show that Ester Erna Stein Goldreich was born in Rymanow in 1906 and that their daughter Lusa was born in Sanok in 1932 and that the three of them had been murdered in Holocaust.
In a Dziennik Urzedowy number 2 for the year 1928, Dr. Dawid GOLDREICH is listed as a medical doctor in Sanok. (Published by the Jagiellionian Digital Library).
Remembering
Dr. Dawid Goldreich,
his wife Ester Erna Goldreich nee Stein
and their daughter Halina Lusa Goldreich.

Simche and Laja Gärtel / Gaertel
On October 6th 1915 many persons died in Lubaczow, among them Laja Gärtel nee Kresen. She was born around 1855, the daughter of Moses Josef and Freida Kresen. She had been married to Simche Gärtel. So far I have not located her grave.
The text in Hebrew would include
לאה בת משה יוסף
What happened to her husband Simche after her death?
I did not find his name in the death register for Lubaczow that included December 1938, and I found no Page of Testimony for him, though a grandniece had submitted Pages for three of this couple's children:
Awrum who lived in Rawa Ruska
Golda who lived in Jaroslaw
Nesia married GLANZER who lived in Krakow.
So when and where did Simche die?
Lately the Jewish Historical Institute in Warszawa has put online more than 60000 digitalized documents. Among these are Kennkarten (Identity Cards) issued by the Germans in Krakow in 1940.
On August 5th 1940 a Kennkarte was issued for Simche Gärtel, born in September 1855 in Lubaczow, a widower. Each Kennkarte has the identities of two witnesses. One of the witnesses here is Nesia Eidel GLANZER living at the same address as Simche Gärtel.
http://cbj.jhi.pl/documents/868936/0/
From this we understand that the 85 year old widower was living with his daughter and her family in Krakow and that he was alive on August 5th 1940.
Did he die of natural causes?
Did lack of food and medicines shorten his life?
Was he murdered?
Looking at his face, I wonder what his thoughts were, when this photo was taken.
http://cbj.jhi.pl/documents/868936/1/
His daughter Nesia, then 37 years old, what was she thinking?
http://cbj.jhi.pl/documents/873200/1/
Nesia was married to Chaim Glanzer, a Melamed, a teacher of Hebrew and Judaism, 47 years old in 1940.
http://cbj.jhi.pl/documents/873191/1/
I am not able to find out if they had any children, but they are both listed as Holocaust victims.

The Jewish Russian Soldier: Arje PRICKER
Some questions relating to soldiers who fell in
World War One in Lubaczow:
1. Where did the German Army bury their soldiers who
fell in that war around Lubaczow?
Perhaps in one of the bigger towns, like Przemysl?
Perhaps behind the local hospital where they buried German
soldiers in WWII?
2. Where did the Russian Army bury their fallen soldiers
from the Lubaczow area in that war?
3. Then the mystery, based on the information in the
Death Register: Why was the Jewish Russian soldier
Arje PRICKER buried at the Jewish cemetery?
Who was he? Where did he come from?
His death date is noted as Oct 6th 1915.
This would be Tishrei 28th or 29th 5676.
The Jewish community in Lubaczow must have taken
an active role in the burial of Arje PRICKER.
It is also important to note that 50 of the Jews
of Lubaczow had died on that same day.
Did they all die from warfare or from an epidemic?
Checking for the family name PRICKER in Alexander
Beider's books about family names in the Kingdom
of Poland and in the Russian Empire, I found none.
Checking Pages of Testimony, I wondered if
the family name could be PRICKER with the
pronunciation PRITZKER.
Going back to Alexander Beider and his "Dictionary of
Jewish Surnames from the Russian Empire" I then found
that the family name PRITSKER was found in Kanev,
Uman, common in Vasil'kov and Kiev and that it
originates from the village Pritski in the Kanev d.
A very wild guess:
A Page of Testimony was submitted in 1986, in Russian,
for Mulia born 1915 in Kiev, the son of Malka
and Leib (could be Arje), and Mulia's son Romele born 1941.
Mulia's wife was Etel nee Shapira. Etel does not have
a Page of Testimony. Mulia and Romele were murdered
at Babi Yaar, according to the Pages submitted.
I can not read Russian but the family name has
been transcribed like this in Latin and Hebrew letters
PRICKER
פריצקר
From my limited Polish I know that C can be pronounced
TZ, like in Calel Tzalel Bezalel.
Could Arje PRICKER (/ PRITZKER?) have been a young
soldier from Kiev, married to Malka, the father of a son
named Mulia (Shmuel) who was born in 1915, the same
year Arje PRICKER fell in the war ?
Kosha Pakman directed me to
http://jri-poland.org/russian-jewish-fallen-soldiers-ww1.htm
No PRICKER there.
To my understanding that database only covers
"Polish" gubernias, so if, f.ex., Arje PRICKER was from Kiev,
he would not be included.
If you read Russian, perhaps you could check the scanned
images for fallen Jewish soldiers from Kiev on the
Russian State Library's website?
(www.rsl.ru)
Perhaps we can solve the mystery.
