  Yad Vashem's card file of Jewish refugees from Poland who found refuge in various countries, 1939–1941, has a card for Josef Kamieniecki, born in 1893, a factory owner of Warsaw, who was in Wilno during the war, and beside it a card for his son Viktor, born in 1923, which names his father Josef. The year and the son agree with this register line; the register's other Josef Kamieniecki was some fourteen years younger. Credit: Yad Vashem Archives.
