Janet Zuchter Moskowitz, born in Bedzin, Poland, was sent with her mother, brother, and some aunts, uncles, and cousins to Auschwitz-Birkenau, in 1943. Janet survived Auschwitz Concentration Camp and a death march to a sub-camp of Ravensbruck. She was liberated in May of 1945 by the British.
After liberation Janet married Max Moskowitz and they lived for a time in Germany where they had a daughter, Ida. In 1950, the family immigrated to the United States, eventually buying a chicken farm in Egg Harbor. Janet, who died in May 2007, wrote her memoir, “The Miracle of Survival: Angels at my Back,” published in September of 2007.
