I am not sure there are exact synonyms, although you can get close. "Was" is the simple past tense of the irregular verb "to be." I am in Boston (present); I was in New York (past). You can change to another past tense-- "I have been," or even further back, "I had been," or a while ago "I used to be." But these are not the same as "was."
