Frank Dobia Archives

Welcome to Frank Dobia Archives, Frank Dobia's new website.

Frank Dobia is Holocaust survivor, born Izak DOBRASZKLANSKA in Dobrzyn nad Drweca now called Golub-Dobrzyn, Poland.

Frank's old website has needed to be updated for a while. Frank has been working hard to organize and translate new information he has gathered about Golub-Dobryzn and his family and his experience in the Holocaust. The records and information Frank has compiled over his lifetime are obviously only a fraction of the data that once existed. It is taking time to put this information into order, so please be patient.

This website is an effort to digitize and share information Frank has found about his town and his family. Every effort has been made to make the information as available and comprehensive as possible. If you have any questions send Frank an email with the details. Also, if there are errors please don't hesitate to contact us so the information presented here can be as accurate as possible.

Please note that Frank's writing is kept in its original form and is not heavily edited because Frank's words convey more than perfect grammar: This is Frank's life, Frank's life work; and just like that life it isn't perfect. But his words are an important record of survival and perseverence and love. We hope you will find this website valuable and evocative of the families that came before us.
