- Indoor, group portrait. Five adults from the Minzberg family pose together. On top right is Tonia Minzberg and at the bottom left is Miriam Kaminska. They were both saved by righteous gentile family friend Jan Mlynarczyk. Narrative: Jan Mlynarczyk was recognized as a Righteous Among the Nations in 1990 for his rescue of a Jewish family in a small shtetl named Koszyce (Poland). The seven family members he saved were Tonia Lowenstein, Chana Minzberg, Dina Minzberg, Mania (Miriam) Lowenstein, Hadasa Kaminska Mandelbaum, Asher Mandelbaum and Dina Mandelbaum Spiegel. Mlynarczyk provided false Christian identity papers as well as hiding places for them. They are believed to be the only surviving Jews of their village.
