[The Ukrainians] murdered 11 Poles, including a married couple and a Polish woman, the wife of a Ukrainian, who was murdered by her son at the behest of his father. And: „This supposed Ukrainian Insurgent Army was not an Army, it was a gang of rezunów and murderers. They came at night like rats and did not kill, but butchered. He mentions, for example, in Michalcz they slaughtered Mrs. Hawrylewicz, cut her belly, cut off her breasts and made their 12‑year‑old son and her husband look at each other, then they also killed them. About 7 people were murdered in Kolanki by the Jaszczuk family. They killed Mikołaj Jaszczuk's wife. The staff of these Ukrainian butchers was in Potoczyska, 3 km from Michalcz and Kolanki. These are the heroes of the UPA”.

I have a request: contact with the person who briefly described the death of my aunt Aniela Hawrylewicz née Glazer, who lived in Korniów before the wedding, was also born there. Korniów is the cradle of my family.
