Many thanks to Tomer Brunner of Israel for suggesting
the spelling variant of this shtetl, namely
"Brzezany," which in turn yielded "Berezhany," the
current spelling for the town which is in East
Galicia, West Ukraine, birthplace of my husband's
grandparents, Leon and Celia Mantel. May I recommend
Roman Zakharii's well-researched and moving website on
the fate of B's Jews:
