Baruch was born after the war (1949) in Transilvania – Satu Mare.
Gal and Ziv Eylon (Alper) were both born in Haifa, Israel.

The following pictures were provided by Mr. Daniel Katz (was there in 2007) and Mrs. Kate Power.
In 2007, when Mr. Katz was there, the prison compound was still there. The agricultural fields in front of the prison are actually a cemetery where innumerable Jews are buried. There is a monument built by the Jewish community of Moghilev Podolski which he and Mrs. Power (separately at different times) photographed.
Mrs. Sylvie Gsell is maintaining a website (in Facebook) in which she provides information about the Mogilev Podolsk concentration camp, to where Bukovina Jews were deported.
