History
Andrzej Potocki
The earliest record of Jews in Antoniow comes from 1747, and at the end of the 18th century there were already four Jewish families living in Antoniow. In 1868, there were 50 houses and 202 inhabitants, 90 of whom were Jews, in the town. In the 1890s they owned among other things some nearby granges, which after some time became possessions of Dr. Maurycy Moses Kanarek. In 1990, the small town was inhabited by 933 people, 90 of them being of Jewish origin; whereas in 1921 out of 918 inhabitants only 77 were Jews. The local Jews belonged to the religious community of Zaklikow. In Antoniow they had a place for prayer meetings – a kloiz and a mikwah.
In the spring of 1941 German soldiers from Zaklikow murdered 23 Jews, and in October a year later eight local Jewish inhabitants were executed. The rest left for Zaklikow and they shared the fate of the Jews who lived there.
