Teresa Mikosz-Hintzke will speak about her family¹s ordeals during World War
II in her book ³Six Yesrs ŒTll Spring² at the June 13 meeting of the Polish
Genealogical Society of America (PGSA).

Though much already has been written on the Holocaust, her book tells the
story fom a Polish Roman Catholic perspective. Deported to Soviet labor
camps at the age of five and later sent to Polish schools in Iran, after the
war she was reunited with her father, a Polish military officer who had been
a German POW. The family began their Odyssey through eight countries and
three continents. Ms. Mikosz-Hintzke, a graduate of Northwestrn University,
has been a Chicago resident for the past 25 years..

The meeting will take place Sunday, June 13 at 2 p.m. in the main hall of
the Polish Museum of America, 984 N. Milwaukee Avenue in Chicago. All PGSA
meetings are free and open to the public.
