Story of Rescue - The Brejna Family

Władysława and Bolesław Brejna spent the Nazi occupation in Warsaw at 24/38 Grójecka Street. They had a son, Tadeusz, and two daughters - Lucyna and Zofia. In their flat at Grójecka Street they were hiding   5-year-old girl named Teofila Raszbaum-Hass. They also obtained fake documents: one with the name Czajkowski for a Jew called Hinc, and the other with the names Stefania and Julian Kępskis for the Eisenman couple.
