  • Notes 
    • Chana and her daughter were captured by Nazi soldiers in Feb 1943, during a second round up of jews to be taken to Treblinka. Chana asked the SS officer to shoot her first so she wouldn't have to see her daughter killed. The SS officer proceeded to kill the daughter and not Chana out of spite. Chana was probably taken to Treblinka and was killed.
