Tarnow (559 words)
Tarnow was incorporated into the Generalgouvernement (the territory in the interior of occupied Poland).
Many Tarnow Jews fled to the east, while a large influx of refugees from elsewhere in Poland continued to increase the town's Jewish population.
Thereafter, deportations from Tarnow to extermination camps continued sporadically; the Germans deported a group of 2,500 in November 1942.
