According to Ron Volk, descendant of the Sczecinski family:

"The Szczecinskis were well off in Poland. My grandfather owned several apartment buildings and a store in Kalisz. They had a servant, as did several family members, including Genia. My dad's uncle owned the only building with an elevator in Kalisz. Of course, we lost everything.
Other than Halina, who survived the war, and Alex and Albert, who came here before the war, the rest of the Szczecinski brothers/sisters died in the Holocaust (there were 12 in total). Very few of their children survived. At the end of the war, the only family to return to Klodawa were Dad, his brother, Halina and Genia. One cousin, Willy Green (Greenspan), left Poland via the underground during the war. He was actually a year older than Albert. He lived in Manhattan and died in 1989 at 86. His wife Helen died around 1994."
