In 1864 a boy was born in Oleszyce to the couple Moses and Chaja WALZER.
They named him Wolf - a kinnui. Perhaps Zeev was his Biblical name, his Shem Kodesh.
From the Oleszyce birth records we discover the names of Moses and Chaja's children who were born in Oleszyce:
1. Nachman WALZER born ca 1853, died in 1924 in Oleszyce.
2. Dawid WALZER born in 1856, died in 1902 in Oleszyce.
3. Josef Samuel WALZER born 1858 in Oleszyce.
4. Mize (?) WALZER born 1861 in Oleszyce.
5. So Wolf WALZER born in 1864 in Oleszyce seems to have been the youngest,
When did Wolf WALZER move to Lubaczow?
In 1921 the marriage between Wolf WALZER and Scheindla FREDMAN was registered in Lubaczow. Scheindla was born in 1866 in Lubaczow, the daughter of Samuel Joachim FRIEDMAN and Beila SEIFERT.
Considering the fact that in 1921 Wolf was around 47 years old, and Scheindla around 45 years old, my theories are that
1. either they had married much earlier with a rabbi, perhaps in Oleszyce or in Lubaczow, and 1921 was the year they registered their marriage in the civil register in Lubaczow
2. or this could have been a second marriage for both of them. Could their first spouses have died earlier?
Scheindla FRIEDMAN born 1866 was the daughter of Samuel Joachim FRIEDMAN and Beila SEIFERT (Beila SEIFERIN?).
Scheindla had a younger sister, named Hena or Chana, born in 1870 or 1874.
Hena Chana had married Dawid WEICHHOLZ from Kanczuga and they had at least one son Melech WEICHHOLZ, born ca 1904. Melech died in 1927.
Dawid WEICHHOLZ, born 1872 in Kanczuga, then is listed as a person deported from Mecheln/ Mechelen in Belgium to Auschwitz on October 10th 1942. Had he emigrated to Western Europe some time after the death of his son in 1927, perhaps with his wife?
