Given name: Janina Family name: Poniatowska

Marysia Szereszewska's junior high school teacher. At her place, in Nowy Zjazd Street, Marysia stayed with her son after escaping from the liquidated ghetto in Otwock in mid-August 1942. Janina and her husband were very helpful and kind, helped Marysia to get 'Aryan papers' and registered her. Because they were both members of the underground, they advised Marysia to move to Mrs Janina's sisters, downstairs in the same house. Poniatowska was seriously ill and died ca. 18 April 1943.
