Hello Olga
I was
just looking threw your site I found it very interesting. I am looking
for information on my grandparents who were in Altenstadt. Any suggestions
where to look would be much appreciated.They immigrated to the US in
1955 there names were Stefania Korkus. Her maiden names Chomin. She was
born in Cholodowka Kr. sadowa Wisnica Polen; married in Altenstadt I
believe. I do not know her husband's name. She married in the US to a
Bronislaw Mazur whom I believe was at the same camp. On her papers, it
says her address is Ingolstadt / Donau Spretistr.33. Any help with this
problem would be appreciated. Thank you so much for taking the time to
look at this.

Mother,
Genowefa Dworczynska was sent to a forced labor camp,
to a German chocolate factory. I was born in 1945.
Unknown to my Mother the Germans poisoned the milk and I was one
of many that drank it as an infant. Many died, my Mother
was advised by a doctor to leave me as I was not going to live.
My Mother didn't give up on me. She continually force-fed me to try and get the poison out of my system. My Mother's friends many times told the story of my Mother's endless determination that I was to live to the point that they finally told her to leave the child already, it's hopeless. My Mother would not stop doing all she knew to keep me alive. My Mother married Stefan Chochol in Germany (he was a survivor of Auschwitz for five years). We came to the U.S. via airplane as DP's, sponsored by a farmer in Louisiana.
Both
parents were from Poland.
Father: Joseph Tomczyk
Stepfather: Stefan Chochol - Poland

Thank
You for your reply.
Just
today I looked at my birth certificate which is a translation reads as
follows:
I was born in 1945, my Mom Genowefa Chochol, nee Dworzynska was living in the DP Camp at Manching. I also found I spelled my Mom's maiden name incorrectly, it should be Dworzynska
The certificate is dated: Ingolstadt 2.2.1951, Sub Unit Ingolstadt, Legal Counsellor Doc. Mrg. M. Sobolski, Legal Counsellor. A stamp reads: IRO, sub area team 7, Ingolstadt, Legal Counsellor. Thank You in advance for any information you can glean for me.
