... organized articulate self conscious community of Jews who show their sense of togetherness, or as some all it, their sense of distinctiveness in a concrete manner, whether it be in the political, social, philanthropic or cultural sphere and whether it be in Suwałk itself or in the lands to which these Suwałk Jews emigrated. Because of the surrounding forests, the Lithuanians thought that the area would make a perfect place for a penal colony, and so, late in the Dark Ages, Suwałk was founded. In 1336 Poland assumed dominion over Suwałk as the result of the marital union of Polish and Lithuanian royalty■ In 1795 Prussia became Lord and Master of Suwałk and the Prussians ruled until 1807 when Suwałk took on a French flavor under Napoleons1 rule. It is under the enlightened reign of Napoleon ... - Baranow Yizkor Book (1964), image 241 {y32}

He would make up a list of boys, appointing them to collect money from the Jewish merchants in town. Each boy would have his Friday assigned to him in which to make his rounds. Another list was drawn up designating one boy a week to collect the books strewn on the tables and place them in their respective shelves. The money collected was turned opcr to a treasurer, usually a merchant of good repu-tation. The money was withdrawn only when needed to buy new books or mend the old ones. The purchase of new books was a matter that required serious contempla-tion. For there were always more "necessary" books to buy than there was money with which to buy them. The Gabai ... - Baranow Yizkor Book (1964), image 251 {y32}

It was surrounded by neat rows of homes with the front sections serving as stores opening onto the "Marck." In the middle was a huge gas lamp suspended from ... the area. To the north and the south were the water pumps from which the inhabitants hand-pumped their daily supply of water. These pumps rose from wooden structures which covered the wells from which the water was pumped.

... in the 90's of last century. The most damaging one was that in 1898, which caused the central part of town to burn down. The townhall went up in flames and with it all documents that might have shed some light on the history of the township. Baranow was not long in rebuilding. In place of the old wooden hovels new brick structures rose. Consequently Baranow gave the appearance of a young town. The calendar was a casualty of the impact of the fires. Thus, for a long period, events in the community did not occur according to the calendar year, but so many years pre or post the conflagration.
