Fachler family- Salomon is the baby

Fachler Family

The family name Fachler was quite common in Ostrowiec. Many Fachlers left to Lodz from Ostrowiec and many emigrated to North and South America before the Holocaust.

Yanky Fachler writes in his book, The Vow: Rebuilding the Fachler Tribe After the Holocaust, “As far as can be ascertained, the family patriarch was my great great grandfather Nathan Fachler, who was born around 1850, and lived in...Ostrowiec...We don’t know just how many members of the family left Poland for America, but it seems that the figure may have reached several dozen....”
