Łahodów

The UPA shot a Pole, stung and dragged the tied horse through the whole village into the forest, where they abandoned the body (it was Piotr Śnieżyk). His family, thanks to the help of a Ukrainian, Laba, married a Pole, left for Poland. For this help, in July 1944 the Bandera followers murdered the entire 5–person Łab family, including their 15‑year‑old daughter tied upside down to a tree and she died.

Łahodów

The remaining members of this family (Śnieżyków – comment by: Stanislaus Żurek) Survived at that time thanks to a Ukrainian, Aleksander Łaba. Piotr's family immediately left for Nowy Sącz. Alexander tilled their land, hoping for their return and for their livelihood. He dared to tell his neighbors about it. When the bandits found out about it, in the summer of 1944, they murdered the whole family: 60‑year‑old grandmother, Aleksander, and his wife – a Polish pregnant woman, a five‑year‑old son and a fifteen‑year‑old daughter. The girl was tied alive to a tree, head down. And thus this child died. This crime started a long list. I give the names that I remember, of people murdered by the Ukrainians, but I would like to point out that this is an incomplete list: Jan Śnieżek, Maria Florko, wife of Józef – my uncle, Ptaszek – father and his two daughters, Maria Kunicka, Michał Kunicki, Michał Florko.
