Re: Korcsak
in reply to a message by Dora
I've wondered about that too. If memory serves Korshak is Ukrainian and means "eagle". There might be some sort of connection with the German Adler, which is also a Jewish surname. I've always thought of Korczak as a Polish name, but not one adopted by Jews. It seems this may not be the case.
