Naczas- Yes! Still looking for Ulchak....

Hi Hannia,
Happy Holidays to you too!
38 emails and 45 photos later I have to say that it is a delight writing to Anna and her mother, they are sending more info than I am and if anything I am the one with the language deficiency. The Naczas side of the family fled westward from Jezierna during 1939 and 1944, and speak Polish. However they are able to write to me in ok English, while I am the one using Google translate to write back to them in Polish and English. Arrichie and Mikka Naczas (who I didn't know about but are in a photo with my greatgrandmother) traveled from Boston to visit the family in 1959-60, and left some photos, which Anna's mother sent back to me. When I sent them to my relatives they wrote back "Where did you get those!?!?!" The only problem so far has been that they have no information about the Ulchak side of the family.
If there is anyone who has Ulchak (or even Ozerna) connections, I would love to write to you too.
Thanks, best wishes for the new year.
