Jarochowski/ Iarokhovski

Joseph Francuz says: "There were a few brothers. They were exceptionally strong and muscular. When the Jewish boys would go swim or skate or play, the Polish boys would chase them, beat them up. The Jewish boys would always try to have one of the Jarochowski brothers with them, because the Poles were afraid of them as well. Jarochowski sold cows. They lived on the outskirts of the town. They were not as religious as the other Jewish families, and were sometimes considered 'outcasts' for that reason.”
