Koszlaki

It was very difficult for me to convince my 87‑year‑old grandmother to tell a story, but a few days ago, during the conversation, I managed to obtain the following information: in 1944 (my grandmother could not give me exact dates) her relatives were murdered by the Banderites: her mother–in–law Katarzyna Ratuszny and her fifteen‑year‑old grandson Jakub Ratuszny (son of Maria Ratuszny) came from the village of Prosowce, Toki parish, Zbaraż district. In the same year, the grandmother's parents were also murdered, the brothers on the mother's side, that is: At the beginning of 1944, Feliks Józiuk, born in 1902 (father), living in the village of Koszlaki at number 161, the Zbaraż commune, and Tomasz and Jan Józiuk (mother's brothers), who lived in also in Koszlaki. The circumstances of the murder are not known to my grandmother, or for reasons which she knows only, she refuses to disclose them. It only reported that they died one day.

Koszlaki

Between Hołodki and Woroblijówka: „It was very difficult for me to convince my 87‑year‑old grandma to tell a story, but a few days ago, during the conversation, I managed to obtain the following information in 1944 (my grandmother could not give me exact dates) her relatives were murdered by the Bandera followers: Katarzyna Ratuszny and her fifteen‑year‑old grandson Jakub Ratuszny (son of Maria Ratuszny) came from the village of Prosowce, Toki parish, Zbaraż district. In the same year, the grandmother's parents were also murdered, the brothers on the mother's side, that is: At the beginning of 1944, Feliks Józiuk, born in 1902 (father), living in the village of Koszlaki at number 161, the Zbaraż commune, and Tomasz and Jan Józiuk (mother's brothers), who lived in also in Koszlaki. The circumstances of the murder are not known to my grandmother, or for reasons which she knows only, she refuses to disclose them. It only reported that they died one day. A few months after this incident, her mother Barbara Józiuk, born in 1908, who lived in Koszlaki, was murdered. Grandma said that my mother was taken from the village, she was led towards the village of Hołodki and in the forests between Hołodki and Woroblijówka (if I remember correctly) the Banderites took out her eyes and left her tortured. Stefania Józiuk (her husband's sister with some peasant – I quote my grandmother) found her in great secret and took her to their village where she died a few days later. The information was confirmed by my grandmother's brother, Sigismud Józiuk, who was several years younger”.
