Per email Barbara Gancyzk, Klodawa historian, 18Nov2010: Hello, Judy - I have a new material. I filled up two lists of known you kłodawian merchants a different list of merchants, acquired by Mr. Grzegorzewicz. Interesting fact: there is a photographer - Grunfeld. Maybe that comes to Hersh, according to students book at Mendel, he enshrined in the school year 1933/1934 to the class I c (names of parents Hersh and Frajda Ita). The studio was located at ul. Dąbska. Dous Moshe Krell know where the place was a photographer on the street Dąbska. This street was rebuilt several years ago.
