I have been living in Zwoleń since the day I was born. During the War the Germans murdered my husband Józef, my son Aleksander, and also my brother along with his wife and 4 children. My husband was killed in the village of Leokadiów on 15 May 1944. The Germans notified me of the fact.
He was taken in the night and murdered the next morning. My son was arrested on 17 May 1944. Exactly 47 citizens of Zwoleń were detained along with him. Some were deported to a camp, while the others were shot dead in Zwoleń on 19 June [19]44. I was not present at the execution. The victims were accused of belonging to a secret underground organization. My brother, Piotr Obuchcewicz, was burned alive in Ciepielów along with his wife and 4 children. For what, I do not know. The Germans burned them in their home, into which they also forced a number of other people. They then locked the door, covered the walls with straw, and set the place alight. They shot and wounded a 12-year-old child that had managed to escape the flames, and then threw it back into the inferno. This was done by the Gestapo.
After they killed all their victims in Leokadiów, they burned the bodies. My troubles were brought about by the local Volksdeutschers, who knew us Poles quite well, and informed on us – and even participated in the killings – with relish. They fled along with the Germans.
