About the Family
These visas were issued by Aristides de Sousa Mendes in Bordeaux on June 17, 1940.
The BARCINSKI family crossed into Portugal and subsequently went to Brazil. Maria Magdalena "Magda" BARCINSKA and Marceli Jacek BARCINSKI sailed on the ship Argentina from Santos, Brazil to New York in December 1941.
Here is the testimonial of André BARCINSKI, great-grandson of Alicja BARCINSKA (in Portuguese): http://andrebarcinski.blogfolha.uol.com.br/2012/02/16/sousa-mendes-o-nosso-schindler/
