The email below led me to an opposite question. Part of my family
was also >from Bialystok and an aunt who died in the Holocaust was
always known to me as "Aunt Rose." I have not been successful in
finding her birth certificate although I have obtained them for all
her siblings.

Both my mother and my uncle used "American" names here in the U.S.
different >from their birth names and I assume the same is true of my
aunt who remained in Europe.

So, what I would like to know is what was most likely her "real" name
in Poland?

Thank you.
