File 3490 Grzebyk, Jan Grzebyk, Maria Wołoszyniak-Grzebyk, Stefania Grzebyk, Stanisław Jan and Maria Grzebyk, their daughter, Stefania, and son, Stanisław, all lived in Monasterzyska, Buczacz district (Tarnopol voivodeship). In 1942, while visiting Tarnów, Stefania met a Jewish woman named Salomea Szpangled, and later her husband Naftali (Tulek) and Henryk Keller and his family; all of whom lived in the Tarnów ghetto. Stefania used to put on her a white band with a star, in order to enter the ghetto, and to meet with them. With her help, Tulek and Salomea fled the ghetto and moved to Lubenia, near Krosno, where they both survived the war and then immigrated to Israel. Stefania later helped Henryk and his brother, “Nasiek,” (Menasze; later Mieczysław Dombrowski), his sister Rutka Keller, and their parents (Chaim & Leopoldine Keller) to escape from the ghetto and they all found refuge in Boguchwała, near Rzeszów. In November 1942, Dora (Debora) Weg, whom Stefania met through Tulek, was brought to Stefania’s parents’ house, where she stayed for three months. Since she had neither documents nor money, she could not stay any longer, and Stefania’s brother, Stanisław, decided to conscribe with her for forced labor in Germany. He arranged the necessary documentation so that Dora could pretend to be his wife. During their stay in Hainichen, near Dresden (in Germany); Dora gave birth to a daughter, Anna. When they returned to Poland in August 1945, Dora and Stanisław got married. Dora’s sister Sara (later Lucyna Meloch), was also hidden by Stefania for three months. On November 20, 1986, Yad Vashem recognized Jan Grzebyk, his wife, Maria Grzebyk, their daughter, Stefania Wołoszyniak-Grzebyk, and their son, Stanisław Grzebyk, as Righteous Among the Nations.
