The town of Piaski, some 23 kilometers southeast of Lublin, was home to 4,165 Jews on the eve of World War II.[1] The Wehrmacht occupied the town in October 1939, after a brief interlude of Soviet rule.[2] Under German authority, Piaski was assigned to the Lublin County of the Lublin District of the General Government (Generalgouvernement) – Nazi-occupied central Poland, which had not been annexed to the Reich. On October 4, 1939, Emil Ziegenmeyer was appointed Kreishauptmann [county chief] of the Lublin County.[3]

Shortly afterward, a Judenrat [Jewish Council] was established in Piaski, with Mendel Polisecki as its chairman.[4] Other known members of this body were Yosel Rosenblat, Yosel Ashman, and Moshe Drayblat.[5] On January 1, 1940, the Wehrmacht left Piaski, and the German Gendarmerie took over.[6]

In early 1940, the Piaski Ghetto was established in the area of the town's Jewish quarter.[7] ...
