Provenance:
- Source Institution: Mr. George Dreyfus, 15 Boulevard Lascrosses; Batiment B; F-3100 Toulouse; France.
- The USHMMRI HVIP purchased this database from Mr. George Dreyfus, who computerized these materials as a private citizen. It is unclear if Mr. Dreyfus worked from the original deportation lists found in the Centre de Documentation Juif Contemporaine (CDJC), or if he used the Klarsfeld Foundation publication 'Memorial to the Jews Deported from France.' The resulting data clearly differs in scope and content from the Klarsfeld version.

Abstract:
This database, based upon the French Deportation Lists, contains 69940 names of Jews deported from France between 1942 and 1944. While this information is very similar to the Klarsfeld book 'Memorial to the Jews Deported From France' (see FR0110), this electronic version often includes information not found in the book. The list usually includes names, birthdates, birthplaces, transport numbers/dates, and sometimes destination. Unlike the Klarsfeld lists, personal entries in this database appear to have been cross-referenced with other information sources, perhaps against the records of the French Ministere des Anciens Combattants (=Ministry of Veteran Affairs), so as to indicate deportees who registered as Holocaust survivors upon return to France.
